Rita Ora, Raye, Maya Jama: The best dressed at the MTV EMAs 2024

For the first time in history, Manchester will host one of the music world’s most acclaimed awards ceremonies on Sunday night, with notable names travelling across the globe to be in attendance. 

This year, the MTV Europe Music Awards is being hosted by fashion It-Girl and music maven Rita Ora. This will be the British-born musician’s third time hosting. 

Nominations for the awards ceremony were released early last month with Taylor Swift leading the charge with seven nominations, closely followed by Sabrina Carpenter, Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish and Charli XCX

As per usual the night will see stars take to the red carpet in gilded gowns and tailored suiting ensembles, while inside the event, which is taking place at Manchester’s Co-op Live arena, guests will see performances from Raye, Shawn Mendes and Tyla.
