The 47th ceremony of the People's Choice Awards was held on December 7, 2021, at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California. Hosted by Kenan Thompson, the show was the first to be presented before an in-person audience since 2019.[1] The television broadcast marked the first time the show was aired live simultaneously on both NBC and E. after airing solely on E. for the past three years, and on CBS prior to that.
