The Producers Guild Awards were originally scheduled for Feb. 26. The PGA announced the postponement Thursday citing the surge in cases due to the Omicron variant.

The PGA Awards will also take place at the Century Plaza Hotel. PGA's COVID-19 protocols currently include proof of vaccination and booster if eligible, and a recent negative COVID-19 test.
