Not joining us at the ceremonies in Chicago or New York this year? Not a problem. It's easy to follow the Beards online.
Our Twitter feed will be fired up for tonight's Book, Broadcast & Journalism Awards ceremony at Pier Sixty at Chelsea Piers in New York, as well as for the James Beard Awards Gala at Lyric Opera of Chicago on May 4. Winners will be tweeted as they are announced on stage. As always, you can use hashtag #jbfa to participate in Awards-related tweeting.
Also on May 4, we'll be streaming the ceremony live at jamesbeard.org/awards. And make sure to come back to jamesbeard.org/blog for Awards-related videos, winner recaps, and much more.
Visit our Instagram page tonight and on Monday, May 4, for snaps of winners, food by our talented gala chefs, and general revelry. If you're in attendance, go ahead and tag your own photos with #jbfa.
Happy Awards season!
