Watch EMAs 2024 from anywhere with a VPN
Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the awards ceremony on your usual home streaming service?
You can still watch the 2024 MTV EMAs thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are. Ideal when you're away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN. It's the best on the market:
There's a good reason you've heard of NordVPN. We specialize in testing and reviewing VPN services and NordVPN is the one we rate best. It's outstanding at unblocking streaming services, it's fast and it has top-level security features too. With over 6,000 servers across 110+ countries, and at a great price too, it's easy to recommend.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple:
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you want to view your usual U.K. service, you'd select a United Kingdom server from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the show. Head to Pluto TV or another service detailed here and stream the EMAs for free.
