Dramas "The Power of the Dog" and "Belfast"
lead nominations with seven nods each, and winners will be
announced online.
Last year, broadcaster NBC dropped plans to televise the event
following criticism of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA),
which votes on the annual film and television awards - one of
the biggest ahead of the Oscars.
The HFPA was criticised for the lack of racial diversity among
its members and critics also raised questions over whether close
relationships with movie studios may have swayed choices for
nominees and winners.
In October, the HFPA said it had added 21 new members, six of
whom are Black.
"This year's event is going to be a private event and will not
be live-streamed," organisers said on the Golden Globes official
Twitter page late on Thursday.
"We will be providing real-time updates on winners on the Golden
Globes website and our social media."
Earlier this week, the HFPA said there would be no audience or
red carpet at the event, which would also "shine a light on the
(group's) long-established philanthropy work".
It has also banned gifts and favours and implemented diversity
and sexual harassment training for members. The group, which
numbers just over 100, plans to further expand this year.
Rapper and actor Snoop Dogg announced the nominations for the
79th Golden Globes last month.
Nominees include Lady Gaga ("House of Gucci"), Nicole Kidman
("Being the Ricardos"), Will Smith ("King Richard"), Kristen
Stewart ("Spencer") and Denzel Washington ("The Tragedy of
Macbeth").
In television, drama "Succession" led with five nominations.
