Anticipation is reaching new heights as the 2024 Billboard Music Awards (BBMAs) approach, promising to celebrate the most impactful artists of the year.
Leading the nominees are Zach Bryan, Taylor Swift, Morgan Wallen, and Sabrina Carpenter, who have dominated charts and captivated audiences worldwide. Hosting the event is the ever-charismatic Michelle Buteau, whose comedic flair is sure to add an extra layer of fun to the evening.
Fans can tune in on Thursday, December 12, at 6:30 am via Fox and Fire TV Channels, with on-demand streaming available on Paramount+. For those wanting real-time updates, performances, and exclusive moments, Billboard.com and the BBMAs’ social platforms will provide comprehensive coverage.
This year’s ceremony marks the BBMAs’ return to Fox, a homecoming last seen in 2006, adding to the nostalgia and excitement. Viewers can also enjoy seamless access through the Fire TV Channels app, exclusively available on Amazon devices, and Paramount+ for those preferring to catch the show later. With performances and celebrations spanning multiple global locations, the event will feel like an expansive world tour.
Adding to the allure is a live performance by Shaboozey from the iconic W Hollywood, part of the Marriott Bonvoy portfolio, while more performers are set to be announced, ensuring a night filled with unforgettable musical moments.
A highlight of the BBMAs is its comprehensive recognition of excellence across 72 categories, covering artists, albums, and songs that have shaped the music industry. These awards are grounded in Billboard’s year-end performance metrics, making them among the most credible and data-driven in the music world.
Metrics are gathered from October 28, 2023, to October 19, 2024, ensuring that the honours reflect the most consumed, celebrated, and impactful music of the year. This approach cements the BBMAs as an unparalleled celebration of commercial success and cultural relevance.
Beyond the awards, the 2024 BBMAs promise an immersive experience that transcends traditional boundaries. From live performances to exclusive interviews, the ceremony will spotlight artists at their best, bringing fans closer to their favourites.
With the added convenience of multiple viewing platforms and global engagement, the BBMAs continue to set the standard for music award shows. Whether you’re tuning in live or catching up later, this year’s event is poised to be a landmark celebration of music’s power to inspire, connect, and transform lives.
