How to Live Stream the MTV VMAs

You can watch the entire MTV VMAs show for free if you have an antenna or a cable subscription. Cord-cutters can watch the whole live stream from a computer, tablet, smartphone, or television with a compatible streaming device and any service that offers MTV.

How to Watch the VMAs Live Stream with MTV

MTV owns the rights to air the VMAs, but you have plenty of streaming options to choose from and catch the entire show (plus pre-show antics).

You can go straight to MTV.com for the VMAs, or you can stream the VMAs to your phone, tablet, or even television streaming device with the MTV app. The app is available for iOS, Android, Amazon Fire, Apple TV, Android TV, Roku, and more.

Either way, you'll need to provide your streaming provider, cable, or satellite credentials to gain access to a live stream of current MTV programming.
