The Drama Desk Awards Will Move to The Shed Starting in 2027

The Drama Desk Awards, the annual event honoring outstanding theater across all of New York City’s theatrical landscape, will move to the Shed, the cultural institution on Manhattan’s west side, beginning with the 2027 ceremony.

The move is led by Scene Partners, which recently joined with the Season to form Drama Desk Awards Productions to produce the awards going forward.

Located in Hudson Yards, the Shed is known for its boundary-pushing programming across disciplines including theater, music, dance, visual art, and immersive experiences.

The 2027 ceremony is scheduled to take place on Sunday, May 23, 2027. This year’s ceremony was held on Sunday, May 17, in the Town Hall. Click here for a complete list of winners.
