PRIMETIME EMMYS
Television Academy members receive one free entry. Additional entries will require the full entry fee.

Member ID numbers are non-transferable.

The Daytime competition is administered by the National Television Academy. Entry fees are not waived for this competition. However, members may also qualify to vote for the Daytime Emmy Awards.
