So, what time do the Emmys 2017 start? The actual Emmy Awards will start right at 8 p.m. EST on Sunday, September 17, and will air from Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, California on CBS. The Emmy Awards are administered by three sister organizations, which focus on various sectors of television and broadband programming: Television Academy (primetime) National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (daytime, sports, news and documentary).
The bulk of awards (93 to be exact) were doled out at the two-night Creative Arts Emmys, which honor television’s technical and creative behind-the-scenes talent as well as a few acting categories.
