2024 MAMA Awards


The 2024 MAMA Awards was held on November 21 at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, California and on November 22 and 23 at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. Actor and singer Park Bo-gum hosted the US part of the ceremony, while actress Kim Tae-ri hosted the second night of the ceremony in Japan.

Background

The event was organized by CJ ENM through Mnet. This was the first time that the event was held in the United States and the first time it was held outside Asia. The ceremony's theme was "Big Blur: What is Real?", reflecting the blurred lines between music, culture, and individual preferences.

Selection process

All songs and albums that are eligible to be nominated must be released from October 1, 2023, to September 30, 2024.
Round 1 voting for Fans' Choice Male & Female started on October 14, 7 PM KST until October 25, 11:59 PM KST. Round 2 voting together with Fans' Choice of the Year was conducted from November 1 to 15 and during the Live Broadcast segments of the award show before Chapter 1's Japan Ceremony segment.
