The first-ever TikTok Awards are almost here. They're set to air this Thursday, Dec. 18.
So...what are the TikTok Awards? Well, they're kind of exactly what they sound like — an event to honor TikTok and its creators.
Mashable's Crystal Bell has all the details, but, as she wrote, you can expect "the chaos and creativity of TikTok brought to life in physical space" with "creator-led segments, live performances, and moments designed to be experienced and immediately shared, clipped, and stitched."
Mashable is covering the awards live, both on the red carpet and inside the venue. We've already seen some cool outfits, big stars, and fun moments. But if you want to watch from home, it's simple enough.
How to watch the 2025 TikTok Awards
As you might've expected, you can watch the TikTok Awards on TikTok itself. Fire up the TikTok app, go to @TikTok, and you should see it streaming on the company's livestream.
You can also stream the TikTok awards via Tubi, for free. The red carpet livestream kicks off at 5 p.m. PT (that's 8 p.m. ET) while the event itself starts at 6 p.m. PT.
We've got the full list of nominees here at Mashable, but the marquee award of the night is Creator of the Year. My money is on Keith Lee — but we'll have to tune in to find out.
