Celebrating the year’s most iconic music, the American Music Awards is the world’s largest fan-voted award show honoring today’s most influential artists and their passionate fanbases.

The American Music Awards winners are determined entirely by fan voting. The voting process, including tabulation and verification, is managed by a third-party independent company. The American Music Award nominees are determined by fan engagement across streaming, album and song sales, radio airplay and tour grosses. These measurements are tracked by Billboard and Luminate, the entertainment industry’s most trusted data partner.

Created by legendary producer and visionary Dick Clark and first awarded in 1974, the American Music Awards is known for delivering half a century worth of iconic performances and enduring moments that have defined and shaped pop culture, as well as a history of introducing audiences to breakthrough artists.

The American Music Awards is produced by Dick Clark Productions and broadcasts globally across linear and digital platforms.
