From daring fashion to just-as-buzzy celebrity feuds, the VMAs are home to plenty of iconic moments.
And with MTV rolling out the red carpet at Long Island’s UBS Arena on Thursday night, fans needn’t wait long to see who’s taking home a trophy at this year’s musical extravaganza.
Read on for everything to know about the 2024 ceremony — from who’s performing to how to watch for free.
When are the VMAs?
This year’s VMAs take place on September 11, 2024 (after shifting a day due to Tuesday’s presidential debate) and will be available to watch and stream live on MTV at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
How to watch and stream the VMAs
No cable? No problem. Viewers can stream the VMAs live on services like Hulu + Live TV ($77/month after trial), which offers a slew of cable channels — plus bonus services like Disney+ and ESPN+, both included with the subscription.
The best part? The streamer offers a 3-day free trial for new users. (Plus, if you do end up subscribing after that, you’ll also get $30 off your first month).
