Summary

The Kennedy Center Honors will be held Dec. 7 at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., rather than its namesake venue, for the first time in the ceremony's nearly 50-year history. The Kennedy Center's main building remains closed. A legal fight continues over efforts by President Trump and his administration to add his name to the center, despite a court order blocking the change; no reason was given for the move.
