MTV has yet to announce which artists will perform at the event, to be staged in front of an audience at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
Last year, MTV initially announced that the 2020 edition would be held at the same arena before cancelling and hosting a scattered, behind-closed-doors ceremony with pre-recorded musical performances in several New York locations.
The eligibility period for this year’s videos is from July 2020 to June 2021.
Cultural activities are returning to New York as the city reopens in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, boosted by vaccinations.
