The 2023 Daytime Creative Arts & Lifestyle Emmy Awards and the Children’s & Family Creative Arts Emmy Awards have been confirmed by The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. The Daytime Creative Arts & Lifestyle Emmy Awards Luncheon is set to take place on December 16 at noon PT, and the Children’s & Family Creative Arts Emmy Awards Dinner will follow at 8 p.m. PT on the same day. The weekend will culminate on December 17 with the Children’s & Family Emmy Awards and Trustees’ Gala at 5 p.m. PT. All of these events will be held at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel in Los Angeles.
The weekend will kick off with a private luncheon to honor the 2023 Daytime and Children’s & Family inductees into the Gold & Silver Circle honor society on December 14. Notably, talk show host Maury Povich, who was previously announced as a Daytime Emmys Lifetime Achievement Honoree, will receive his award at the ceremony on December 16.
The nominations for the Daytime Emmy Awards were announced in April, while the Children’s & Family Emmy nominations were revealed on November 2. President and CEO of NATAS, Adam Sharp, expressed his enthusiasm for honoring the diverse creators and entertainers that inspire and entertain audiences of all ages. He also highlighted the incredible impact of their work on viewers’ lives.
NATAS has recognized that many SAG-AFTRA members appearing on daytime dramas, talk shows, and other non-dramatic programs work under the guild’s Network Code agreement, which remains a non-struck contract. However, they acknowledged that some Children’s & Family Emmy-nominated programs remain struck. They salute the nominated performances of those SAG-AFTRA members and their work but acknowledge the violation of the guild’s strike rules for promoting or publicizing their nominations for struck work.
