The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences have officially announced that the Academy Awards will once again be held in February, after this year's delay to March. The 83rd annual ceremony will take place on the last Sunday in February, which just happens to fall on February 27th, 2011. The Academy had held the Oscars in late March or even early April for decades until the 2004 ceremony, when the ceremony moved to February.
This year, the ceremony moved to March 7th so it wouldn’t conflict with the Winter Olympics in Vancouver, British Columbia. Despite the move to February, many in the industry complained of “awards fatigue” although awards season is considerably shorter than it was in its pre-2004 incarnation..
