NEWS: UK Music Video Awards Call For Entries

The UK Music Video Awards return to London's West End on November 8 to celebrate the best British and not British music videos of the year.

The UK MVAs are accepting submissions now for their expanded slate of award categories — ranging from Best Video to Best Telecine to numerous genre awards and several category break-outs to honor UK, International and "budget" entries.
