How to watch MTV VMAs 2025 – where can you stream it?

The MTV Video Music Awards are back and this year’s event looks set to be a night to remember.

In a notable achievement, Lady Gaga leads all nominations across twelve categories, including Artist of the Year, Best Video, and Song of the Year. Notably, this marks her return to the stage after a five-year absence for a highly anticipated performance.

Among the powerhouses vying for recognition alongside me are artists like Bruno Mars, Kendrick Lamar, ROSÉ, Sabrina Carpenter, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, Billie Eilish, and Charli XCX.

This year, the multiple Grammy and VMA award-winning artist LL Cool J has been announced as the sole host for the awards ceremony, taking place at UBS Arena in New York’s Long Island. Previously, he shared co-hosting duties with Nicki Minaj and Jack Harlow during the 2022 show.

However, let us explore the methods for spectators to enjoy this year’s event right at their homes. Keep reading for all the details.
