The Writers Guild of America West has canceled its annual award show in downtown L.A., as its staff remains on strike.

“I am writing to share the news that the 2026 Writers Guild Awards Los Angeles ceremony will be cancelled. An alternative celebration for this year’s Los Angeles-based nominees will be scheduled at a later date,” WGA West president Michele Mulroney wrote in a letter, in part, to awards presenters and participants on Sunday morning.
