awards show
Celebrity prize event
An awards show is a televised ceremony honoring achievement in a particular field—film, music, television, theater.
The format typically combines celebrity presenters, acceptance speeches, and musical performances: We watched the awards show to see who won Best Picture.
Major examples include the Oscars, Grammys, and Emmys.
