The Academy Awards in 2020 will take place in late February in 2021 and 2002, the organizers said on Tuesday. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and the broadcaster have revealed the reason for the change in dates. The change in schedule will be to accommodate the Olympics, Super Bowl and other events, organizers. Next year, the 92nd Oscars is set for February 9, but the following ceremonies will be on February 28, 2021 and February 27, 2022 -- the final Sundays of the month.

"Timing of the 2022 Olympics, the Super Bowl and national holidays will keep the 2021 and 2022 dates on the last Sunday in February," the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and US network ABC said.
