YouTube Oscars streaming rights are now confirmed, and the Academy has ended a major chapter in broadcast television. The awards, long tied to ABC in the United States, will move to a full streaming model from 2029. The announcement landed on Wednesday from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which said the YouTube agreement covers the 101st Oscars through to 2033.

ABC keeps the show until 2028. After that, viewers worldwide will be able to watch live and free on YouTube, while US subscribers can also access the YouTube TV feed.
