The iHeartRadio Music Awards is an annual music awards show that celebrates the most popular artists and songs played on iHeartRadio stations and the iHeartRadio app throughout the year. Established in 2014, the event has become a significant fixture in the music industry calendar.

The awards ceremony typically takes place in Los Angeles, California, and is broadcast live on television, radio stations nationwide, and the iHeartRadio app. The show features live performances from major artists, surprise collaborations, and award presentations across multiple categories.

Categories at the iHeartRadio Music Awards include Song of the Year, Artist of the Year, and Best New Artist, among others. The awards also recognize achievements in specific genres such as Pop, Country, Rock, and Hip-Hop/R&B. In recent years, the ceremony has introduced new categories to reflect changing trends in music consumption and creation, such as TikTok Bop of the Year and Favorite Tour Style.

A unique aspect of the iHeartRadio Music Awards is its emphasis on fan participation. Several categories are socially voted, allowing listeners to have a direct impact on the outcomes. These fan-voted categories often include Best Fan Army, Best Lyrics, and Social Star Award.

The show is known for its star-studded lineup of performers and presenters, often featuring some of the biggest names in contemporary music. Past performers have included Taylor Swift, Drake, Ariana Grande, and Bruno Mars, among many others.

In addition to recognizing current hitmakers, the iHeartRadio Music Awards also pays tribute to established artists through special honors such as the iHeartRadio Innovator Award and the iHeartRadio Icon Award. The iHeartRadio Music Awards serves not only as a celebration of the year's most popular music but also as a platform for showcasing emerging talent and previewing upcoming hits.
