All the live performances will be held at different venues in New York. This is a precaution MTV is taking due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The entire event was previously supposed to be held at a Brooklyn venue, but MTV executives cancelled that plan due to the health risk caused by large gatherings. This year's Video Music Awards will be hosted by Keke Palmer.
