The prestigious Kennedy Center Honors ceremony will be held at a new venue this year, marking the first time in its history it will not take place at its traditional home. The move comes as the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts is embroiled in a dispute, with Donald Trump reportedly seeking to have the venue named after himself.
The Capital One Arena in Washington D.C. is slated to host the 7 December event. The decision to relocate highlights the ongoing tensions surrounding the venue's naming rights and its potential impact on cultural events. The list of honorees for this year has not yet been announced.
