Soap fans gear up for the biggest night of the year as the 49th annual Daytime Emmy Awards draw near. And as the event draws closer, we have answers to all of your burning questions about this year’s ceremony!
When are the Daytime Emmys 2022?
This year, the Daytime Emmys will take place on Friday, June 24th. The Creative Arts & Lifestyle Emmys are scheduled for Saturday June 18th.
Where will the 2022 Daytime Emmys be held?
The ceremony returns once again to the Pasadena Civic Center after two years in which the COVID-19 pandemic restricted in-person gatherings. The 2020 ceremony was entirely virtual, while the 2021 show was a mix of some awards accepted in person and others accepted virtually from the winners’ homes. However, NATAS has not yet revealed how extensive the in-person ceremony will be this year.
How can I watch the 2021 Daytime Emmys?
Fans were thrilled when the 2020 Daytime Emmys returned to television, and like last year, CBS will be televising the 2022 awards live in prime time! Prior to that, the awards were last televised in 2015, when cable network Pop TV aired them. In between, the ceremony was streamed online, and NATAS even developed its own streaming service to host the Daytime Emmys and other awards ceremonies.

Who is nominated for a Daytime Emmy this year?
The Daytime Emmy nominations were announced together live on May 5 on THE TALK and also on social media. The full list of nominees for the daytime drama can be found here.
