American Music Awards Move to May 2025, as CBS and Dick Clark Prods. Plan Anniversary Special in October


The American Music Awards will return in May 2025. Instead this October, CBS and Dick Clark Prods will air an AMAs 50th anniversary special.

CBS and Dick Clark Productions are set to announce Tuesday that the AMAs, which weren’t held in 2023 — the first time the kudocast went dark since its 1974 launch — also won’t hand out awards in 2024. In its place this October, CBS will air a two-hour event, the “American Music Awards 50th Anniversary Special,” set to run at 8 p.m. ET/ 5 p.m. PT (simulcast on both coasts) on Oct. 6. The performances, created just for ‘American Music Awards 50th Anniversary Special,’ will include collaborations, debuts from today’s hottest stars and appearances from AMAs legends.”
