The 2024 Billboard Music Awards will be distributed slightly differently than in years past. Below is a quick guide on how to watch the 2024 BBMAs online, including a couple of ways to get a free livestream of the Billboard Music Awards.
Where to Watch 2024 Billboard Music Awards Online
The 2024 BBMAs will be broadcast on FOX, which can be accessed with cable, satellite, or Amazon Fire TV Channels. Viewers who don’t have cable can livestream the BBMAs online using Paramount+ or any live TV streaming service that carries FOX. Here’s a breakdown of these services:
Paramount+
The best way to watch the 2024 BBMAs is Paramount+, which starts with a seven-day free trial. If you want to keep the service after the free trial, plans start at $7.99 per month.
DirecTV Stream
DirecTV Stream offers excellent FOX coverage in most areas, making it a great way to livestream the 2024 Billboard Music Awards without cable. You get a five-day free trial to start, and then packages start at $86.99.
Hulu + Live TV
Hulu + Live TV also carries FOX for Billboard Music Awards livestreams and starts with a free trial (three days). After the free trial, Hulu + Live TV costs $82.99 a month.
Sling
A more affordable cable streaming service that carries FOX is Sling. This one doesn’t have a free trial, but the FOX-equipped Blue package costs just $45 a month. Plus, right now, Sling is running a deal that cuts 50% off your first month’s bill.
