The 98th Oscars are nearly here, and YouTube is the destination for fans to engage with the biggest night in Hollywood. This Sunday, March 15, you can follow the action in real-time with four official livestreams.

You can tune into the arrivals, the ceremony, and the after-party through these livestreams:

  • The ABC News Red Carpet: Watch every high-fashion arrival and interview as the stars head into the Dolby Theatre.
  • ASL Livestream: A dedicated American Sign Language livestream ensures the night’s most memorable moments are accessible.
  • Engraving Station: See what happens the moment a winner leaves the stage. This livestream goes inside the Governors Ball, the Academy’s official post-Oscars celebration, to show the names of winners being etched into gold.
  • Vanity Fair Oscar Party: The celebration continues long after the curtain falls with exclusive access to one of the most legendary after-parties in Hollywood.

This year, the Academy introduces the Achievement in Casting category. To celebrate, the Academy is sharing content on YouTube that explores the role casting directors play in bringing stories to life. It’s a direct look into how your favorite films are made.

From the first Red Carpet arrival to the after-party, tune in this Sunday or search "Oscars" to keep up with your favorite moments of the night!
