What Happens Leading Up to the Awards
Submissions for the 2025 award show opened in late February. The eligibility period is from June 1, 2024 to May 31, 2025. Voting begins in June and ends around late August.
A week prior to the Emmys will be the Creative Arts Emmy Awards and Governors Gala. This is a two night event where several smaller Emmy awards are handed out. During the occasion, the technical and creative achievements of shows take the stage. Awards surrounding animation, hairstyling, casting and more are recognized. Game shows, reality and other non-fiction shows, and variety specials get their time to shine on those nights. Commercials, effects and general production are also awarded.
Additionally, there is also a separate award show held a few weeks later dubbed the Engineering, Science & Technology Emmy Awards.
The Primetime Emmys are under the same umbrellas as other Emmy based events the Television Academy holds including awards for Daytime; Sports; Children’s and Family; International; News and Documentary; and Regional.
