The Tony Awards ceremony will return to Radio City Music Hall in June after a year at the much smaller Beacon Theatre.

Honoring the best in Broadway achievement, the Tonys will be broadcast live Sunday, June 11 (8-11 PM ET) on CBS-TV. Nominations will be announced Tuesday, May 2.

After many years when the Tony ceremony was held at various Broadway theatres, the Tonys moved to Radio City Music Hall, beginning in 1997. The awards show was held there every year until 2010—except in 1999 when the Hall was undergoing renovations—and from 2013 to 2015. It was held at the Beacon in 2011, 2012, and 2016.

Ricky Kirshner and Glenn Weiss of White Cherry Entertainment will return in 2017 as executive producers. Weiss will also serve as director for the 18th consecutive year.
