The prestigious and highest achievement in the film industry is back this weekend. After organizing the Oscars without hosts for the last few years, the 2022 Academy Awards came with three hosts: Amy Schumer, Wand Sykes, and Regina Hall. They were followed by Jimmy Kimmel in 2023, who will host the 2024 ceremony again.
The comedian already hosted the Oscars back in 2017 and 2018. He ties with Whoopi Goldberg and Jack Lemmon to anchor the Acadamy Award four times. Here’s how you can watch the Academy Awards 2024 on FireStick without cable.
Attention FireStick Users
Governments and ISPs across the world monitor their users' online activities. If you use third-party streaming apps on your Fire TV Stick, you should always use a good FireStick VPN and hide your identity so your movie-viewing experience doesn’t take a bad turn. Currently, your IP is visible to everyone.
I use ExpressVPN, the fastest and most secure VPN in the industry. It is very easy to install on any device, including Amazon Fire TV Stick. Also, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you don't like their service, you can always ask for a refund. ExpressVPN also has a special deal where you can get 4 months free and save 61% on the 2-year plan.

Most users forget to cancel the free trial, while some might not have a new email ID or credit card to become eligible for a free trial. That’s why we recommend free apps to watch the Oscars 2024 on FireStick. But you shouldn’t browse content from these apps without an ExpressVPN connection.
Before downloading free apps, you must shield your FireStick browsing from your government and ISP (Internet Service Provider). Some of these apps might carry unlicensed content, and it can be difficult for an average consumer to differentiate it from licensed content.
You can use ExpressVPN on FireStick, connect to another country’s server, and enjoy all free apps without any legal troubles in the future.
Step 1: Subscribe to ExpressVPN HERE. It comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Meaning, you can use it free for the first 30-days and if you are not satisfied with the performance (which is highly unlikely), you can ask for a full refund.
Step 2: Power ON your Fire TV Stick and go to Find followed by Search option.
Step 3: Now type “Expressvpn” (without quotes) in the search bar and select ExpressVPN when it shows up in the search results.
Step 4: Click Download to install the ExpressVPN app on Fire TV / Stick.
Step 5: Open the app and enter the login credentials that you created while buying the ExpressVPN subscription. Click Sign in.

Free entertainment apps offer movies, TV shows, and live coverage of the Academy Awards without paying a dime. I would advise going with two or three free apps on FireStick.

Streaming websites offer free content to watch on your FireStick. You can use the Amazon Silk browser to browse these websites.
