More red carpet live streams are coming to Twitter, thanks to a new\u00a0deal between the social network and Dick Clark Productions, announced this morning. The partners will again work together to bring live streamed programming from award shows exclusively to Twitter, including red carpet pre-shows for the 52nd Academy of Country Music Awards, 2017 Billboard Music Awards and 2017 American Music Awards.<\/p>\n

The partnership is now one of several Twitter has forged in recent months in an effort to\u00a0make its service the home to live events.<\/p>\n

Related to this, Twitter also today announced a deal with both Tubefilter and dcp to air the\u00a07th Annual Streamy Awards this fall.<\/p>\n

Twitter and dcp had already worked together along with the\u00a0Hollywood Foreign Press Association to bring a live stream from the Golden Globes red carpet show to its network earlier in January. The event did fairly well, bringing<\/a> in\u00a02.7 million users, who watched the event\u00a0live on Twitter. In addition, Dick Clark Productions said the Globes were tweeted about 4.7 million times, up from 4.4 million last year.<\/p>\n

As with other red carpet events, Twitter\u2019s stream featured hosts who\u00a0interview the actors and actresses walking into the venue, but it also integrated fan questions, crowdsourced from Twitter users, into those conversations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are thrilled with the success of the Golden Globes red carpet pre-show and look forward to working with Twitter on additional shows,\u201d said Mike Mahan, President, Dick Clark Productions, in a statement<\/a> about the new deal. \u201cBy offering a unique online viewing opportunity, we are able to expand the audience experience and generate deeper, more compelling conversation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Both logged-in and logged-out users will be able to watch, as before, and Twitter will sell TV commercial-style ads against the content.<\/p>\n

In addition to Dick Clark Productions, Twitter has made deals to stream NFL\u00a0Thursday Night Football,<\/a>\u00a0Trump\u2019s inauguration in partnership with PBS<\/a>, the conventions in partnership with CBS<\/a>,\u00a0Wimbledon<\/a>,\u00a0esports<\/a>,\u00a0university sports with Pac-12 Networks<\/a>, NBA programs,<\/a>\u00a0financial news via Bloomberg<\/a>, and more.<\/p>\n

These\u00a0live streams are gaining steam as more people become aware of their existence. For example, its NFL deal to stream Thursday Night Football has been bringing in more viewers, Twitter said this fall, <\/a>noting that the then three most recent games reached just under 3 million viewers, up 28 percent from the first game\u2019s draw of 2.35 million viewers.<\/p>\n

The first of the new live red carpet streams will be the 52nd Academy of Country Music Awards which takes place on April 2nd. That will be followed by the\u00a0red carpet pre-shows for the Billboard Music Awards on May 21st and the American Music Awards in November.<\/p>\n
