This is a list of presenters of Best Picture Academy Award. Each year, the Academy Award for Best Picture is presented by one or more artists on behalf of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Since 1973, Best Picture is the final award presented during the annual ceremonies, as this award represents a culmination of all factors that contribute to cinematic excellence.
