The Oscars are currently scheduled for March 2, but if the Grammys are postponed, the Oscars could follow suit. To date, the Oscars have been postponed only four times:

  • 1928: Due to flooding in Los Angeles

  • 1968: Following the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

  • 1981: After the assassination attempt on President Ronald Reagan

  • 2021: Because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
