As the country emerges from the pandemic amid ongoing vaccinations, MTV and the Barclays Center are working closely with state and local officials to safely bring together music fans from around the globe.
The 2021 VMAs will air live — in more than 175 countries, MTV says — on Sunday, Sept. 12, the first time the show has aired after Labor Day since 2012. In the 1990s, it was common for the show to air on a Wednesday or Thursday night after the holiday, and indeed the 2012 show aired on a Thursday night.
As part of today’s announcement and ahead of the 20th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks, MTV is also partnering with 9/11 day, the nonprofit that began and leads the September 11 National Day of Service and Remembrance, for a series of service-oriented activities in the week leading up to the VMAs and encourage participation in community service activities across the country to honor those affected by the attacks.
