How to Stream the VMA’s First-Ever Virtual Awards Show

Looking for the MTV VMAs 2020 live stream? We have your back. The 2020 MTV Video Music Awards will be held on Sunday, August 30, in New York City. But unlike past VMAs, this year’s ceremony—which will be the first televised awards show since the 2020 Oscars in February—will be virtual, for the most part.

An MTV spokesperson told Variety in May that the show has been communication with government and medical officials to ensure that the ceremony is safe for artists and fans. “We’re exploring with government officials, the medical community and key stakeholders on how to safely hold the 2020 VMAs at Barclays Center on August 30th,” the spokesperson said at the time. “The health of everyone involved is our number one priority. Additionally, we are working on several contingency plans to bring music’s biggest night to audiences everywhere.”

Though the event was planned to be held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn with “limited or no audience” per New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s protocols, the show decided on August 7 that most of VMAs will be virtual for the safety of the artists and crew. Instead, the 37th annual VMAs will feature performances from various iconic locations across New York City’s five boroughs in honor of the city. Performers include BTS (who will perform their new single “Dynamite”), Miley Cyrus (who will perform her new single “Midnight Sky”), and Ariana Grande and Lady Gaga, who will perform their duet, “Rain on Me,” which is nominated for seven VMAs including Video of the Year.
