Celebrate the year’s best music, artists and creative talent in the first-ever Electronic Music Awards! Co-founded by Paul Oakenfold, the first-ever ceremony promises to be electronic music’s biggest night on television. Leading artists, creatives, and executives of the largest musical genre on the planet will be in attendance to unveil the award winners. “It was originally scheduled to air as an hour-long special on April 23, 2016, but has now been pushed back to a date that’s still TBD according to Billboard. While the ceremony date is uncertain, the nominees are set, and it’s clear that the event will put a spotlight on the biggest stars in electronic music while, at the same time, raising money for various causes,” says Sports Betting Dime. In addition, there will be full red-carpet coverage, interviews, and live performances.
