Tom Herbert9 December 2019

The 2019 Nobel Prize winners will be presented with their awards at ceremonies in Norway and Sweden this week.

Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed will collect the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo on December 10 while the winners of prizes in the other categories head to Stockholm to receive theirs.

The annual ceremonies are held on December 10 to mark the anniversary of Alfred Nobel's death, who stipulated in his will that Norway was to host the peace prize ceremony and Sweden the other prizes.

With the ceremony taking place on Tuesday, here's the list of winners plus how to keep up to date with all of the action.

Where will the ceremonies be held?

Nobel Prizes in physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature and economics will be awarded at the Stockholm Concert Hall in Stockholm, Sweden.

The Nobel Peace Prize will be awarded at Oslo City Hall in Oslo, Norway.

Both ceremonies will take place in the afternoon and will be attended by royalty, followed by two banquets held in honour of the laureates.
