History
editIn December 2023, the Hollywood Critics Association was renamed the Hollywood Creative Alliance, and the awards were rebranded as the Astra Awards.[1] This change, approved by the advisory committee on November 17, 2023, led to the renaming of the HCA Film Awards, HCA TV Awards, and HCA Creative Arts Awards to the Astra Film Awards, Astra TV Awards, and Astra Creative Arts Awards, respectively.[2][1][3]
The 7th Astra Film Awards, presented by the Hollywood Creative Alliance, took place on January 6, 2024, at the Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles.[4] This event was the first to be held under the new Astra Awards name. The ceremony was produced by Content.23 Media, DIGA Studios, and Vox Productions. Nominations were announced live on the official HCA YouTube channel on December 7, 2023. On the same day, the Astra Film Creative Arts Awards winners were announced, with the ceremony scheduled to take place on February 26, 2024, at City Market Social House in Los Angeles, California.[5][6]
