We’re definitely doing more than just me in a room , announce winners.I’m really passionate about [still] do the show live, versus something pre-recorded. So, yes, we’re working on some scenarios for ways to present the show live with a little spectacle for people … without the audience [being] able to buy tickets to get to the show, and things like that, this year.“There’s a lot of work, and honestly, our team is working overtime thinking about how we present this in a way that drives the sector in a slightly larger way. That we’ll do some things, we hope still do some spectacle and scale on how we do things, but we’ll probably not be able to do the ‘traditional’ show this year, but it’s going to happen, for sure. “
