It was also the first ceremony since the historic SAG-AFTRA strike this summer that effectively shut down Hollywood for over 100 days - and the stars had every reason to celebrate.
A cocktail of awards season and celebrities can only mean one thing - after parties. And on Saturday night, the likes of Billie Eilish, Jennifer Aniston, Ali Wong and the cast of The Bear slipped into PEOPLE's Screen Actors Guild Awards after party at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Century City.
Inside, the soirée was fueled by free flowing Lallier Champagne and canapes. On the dancefloor, Emily Blunt led the party in a custom red Louis Vuitton gown, while the entire cast of Ted Lasso appeared to change into matching Nike tracksuits.
