iHeartRadio Music Awards Move Networks Again, Will Air on Fox in 2019

The iHeartRadio Music Awards are changing networks again.

The annual award show is moving to Fox for next year after airing the last three years on Turner’s cable networks TNT, TBS and TruTV. The 2019 event will air Thursday, March 14 at 8 p.m. ET/PT from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.

This is the third different network for the show, which only launched in 2014. NBC aired the first two editions, with the Turner networks simulcasting the last three.
