Every Golden Globes Best Animated Feature Film winner

19 ceremonies, 2007–2025. 19 different winners.

Best Animated Feature Film was first awarded in 2007, so it does not run the full 2000–2025 window.

The HFPA announced the category in 2006 and handed it out for the first time at the January 2007 ceremony, for the 2006 film year.

One band per year, because no winner has gone back-to-back in the years on record. Colored by network / distributor; scroll sideways for the full run.
