When and where are the 2023 BET Awards?
Canadian rapper Drake is the top nominee for the 23rd edition of the Black Entertainment Television awards.


The 23rd edition of the BET awards is almost upon us. The ceremony, which was established by the Black Entertainment network in 2001, will give us another chance to celebrate black entertainers, as well as other minorities, from the worlds of music, film, sport and philanthropy in particular.
How many BET awards will be handed out?
More than 20 awards will be presented, many of which have been on the go since the first edition 22 years ago (Video of the Year, Viewer’s Choice Award, Best Actor, Best Actress), while others have been added as the event has grown and tastes have changed (Album of the Year, Best Movie, Best International Act).
