LOS ANGELES â€" The Oscars will be held on March 2 next year, slightly later than this year’s Feb. 24 date, and on Feb. 22 in 2015, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Science said. The date for next year is the first Sunday after the end of the Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.

In setting the dates the Academy also marked the calendar for other events in its next awards cycle: The annual Governors Awards will occur on Nov. 16 this year, Oscar nominations voting begins Dec. 27 and ends Jan. 8 next year, and the nominees luncheon is on Feb. 10, 2014.

The Academy Awards ceremony will still be held at the Dolby Theater in Hollywood, and will again be televised by ABC.
