The Academy Awards in recent decades have taken place at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.

"To create the in-person show our global audience wants to see, the ceremony will broadcast live from multiple locations, including the landmark Dolby Theatre," said spokesperson.

They added, "The 93rd Academy Awards will be an Oscars like none other, while prioritizing the public health and safety of all those who will participate".

Oscars 2021 will take place on April 25 and nominees will be announced on March 15.

The ceremony will air live on  American Broadcasting Company (ABC) and  in more than 225 countries and territories worldwide
