The annual awards were celebrated with the highest-ever number of local viewing parties across the country.
The 31st Annual SAG Awards brought with it local viewing parties from New York to Honolulu.
For some, “The Big Night” was just that — a late-night soiree with raffles, dinners and dress codes ranging from casual to festive. For others, it was a cool afternoon out with snacks and swag to spare. But, all in all, it was a celebration of SAG-AFTRA actors and stunt performers, and union solidarity, while honoring Los Angeles wildfire first responders and our broadcast journalist members for their tireless work.
Check out these moments from this year’s SAG Awards local viewing parties.
