The 2015 MTV Video Music Awards is officially over; it was held on August 30, 2023 at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles, and was aired live on the East Coast, with a three-hour delay on the West Coast (a pre-show begun at 8 pm, and it was aired on MTV at 9pm).
This year, tickets to the MTV VMAs are not being officially sold to the general public. They are typically offered only to the musical artists who are nominated. And if you’re a non-famous director, MTV only extends comp tickets to those who are individually nominated in the Best Director category.
According to Thedailybeast.com, other directors of nominated videos like Josh Forbes (director for indie popsters Walk The Moon (nominated for a Video Music Award for Best Rock Video)) are only given the opportunity to attend if they buy tickets offered at three exorbitantly priced tiers: $450 for mezzanine seats, $650 for loge seats, and $800 per ticket for orchestra seats.
Anecdotal sources suggest that Ticket Liquidator promised 10-20% percent less with ticket prices starting at $140 up to $25,000, while Cheaptickets.com offered $204 (Section: 206 Row: 19) and $1,870 (Section: 105 Row: 7).
