De uitreiking zal dit jaar plaats gaan vinden op 10 juni in de Radio City Music Hall in New York, het is de 72ste keer dat de prijzen uitgereikt worden. Alle genomineerden zullen op 1 mei worden aangekondigd, dit zal worden gedaan door Katharine McPhee.

“The theatre has completely transformed my life in every way possible. I have never felt more embraced and encouraged by a professional community, and I am so grateful for that. I feel incredibly lucky to get to spend an evening celebrating and applauding this outstanding collective of artists, friends, collaborators, and creatives. It is my great honor to join my friend Josh Groban in hosting the Tonys this year, and use the opportunity to simply say a heartfelt 'thank you' to this wonderful community...in high heels, with jokes.” aldus Sara Bareilles.

Josh Groban: "I am humbled and ecstatic to be co-hosting the Tony Awards this year with such a brilliant artist and wonderful friend, Sara Bareilles. The dedication and inspiration surrounding live theatre gave me my life path as a young kid and the warmth and support of the Broadway community has been the highlight of my career. So to be at the helm of a night celebrating the best of that theatre with a person I just laugh way too much with, is beyond words. But I will have words on Tony night! The best words! I look forward to flailing about in front of my peers. It will be with all the love and respect in the world for the room we're lucky enough to be in."

Afgelopen editie werd gepresenteerd door Kevin Spacey en toen werd de musical Dear Evan Hansen de grote winnaar van de avond met zes prijzen. De productie won onder meer de prijzen voor beste nieuwe musical, beste muziek en beste orkestbegeleiding.
