On Monday (February 24), the American Music Awards announced that they are making a comeback this year after being on a hiatus since 2022. The 2025 AMAs are set to take place on Memorial Day, May 26, at 8 p.m. ET. The award show will be relocating to Las Vegas this year for the first time, and will be aired on a new network as well, with CBS handling the live broadcast while the ceremony will stream on Paramount+. After picking up the AMAs following the end of a long-term deal with ABC, CBS aired an introductory one-off broadcast, the “American Music Awards 50th Anniversary Special,” last October. While specific details about this year’s AMAs have yet to be announced, the timing of the show hints at a potential tribute to the country’s troops during the broadcast. The AMAs last regular broadcast in 2022 occurred during its traditional fall timeframe, but the show’s upcoming Memorial Day airdate marks a fresh start for the iconic music awards show, which was created by Dick Clark in 1974.
