Accessible to more than one billion people worldwide, YouTube has become the home to both recognized artists and the next generation of musical talent. YouTube is a new launch-pad for both recognized artists and the next generation of musical talent. Kia will be at the forefront of this cutting-edge paradigm that sets a new standard for music awards.
YouTube will kick off a week-long celebration of music on October 27, featuring the best music content on YouTube, and culminating in the first-ever YouTube Music Awards presented by Kia on November 3. The YouTube Music Awards will feature performances from and collaborations between a variety of artists, from the biggest names in music, including Eminem, Lady Gaga, Eminem and Arcade Fire, to some of the world's biggest YouTube stars.
On Sunday, November 3, in the 12-24 hour period before the awards ceremony, live streamed concert events held at various venues globally will commence starting in Seoul, moving to Moscow, and London and Brazil, and concluding with the main awards show at Pier 36 in New York.
