The Critics Choice Awards delayed their 30th annual ceremony for a second time on Tuesday, TheWrap has learned.

The move comes amid the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires and nearly one week since the first delay was announced. A date for the ceremony will be confirmed later, according to an individual with knowledge of the situation.

On Jan. 8, the Critics Choice Awards delayed its 30th ceremony due to the wildfires in the spreading Pacific Palisades and Altadena. Originally scheduled for Jan. 12, the ceremony was pushed to Jan. 26.

At the time, the rescheduled event was set to remain at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, and was expected to broadcast live on E! before being made available to stream on Peacock the next day.
