The event was taken on January 7, 2014 and aired on television in February 2014, before the Critics' Choice Movie Awards.

In 2018 the Broadcast Film Critics Association established the Celebration of Black Cinema as an award ceremony with special honors and achievements for black cinema. Since 2022 the ceremony has extended to television. In 2021 the association innaugurated the Celebration of Latino Cinema and Television. In 2022 the association launched the Celebration of Asian Pacific Cinema and television, to recognized "the outstanding talent from the Asian American Pacific Islander community".

In 2023 the association organized a special event named Celebration of Cinema and Television: Honoring Black, Latino and AAPI Achievements, which aimed to join the two ceremonies in one special awards show. On November 13, 2023 CCA CEO Joey Berlin announced that the ceremonies will return to individual shows in 2024.
