How to watch Emmy Awards 2025 online — stream 77th awards ceremony from anywhere

"Severance", "Hacks", "Adolescence", "The Bear" — a look through the 77th Emmy Awards nominees only serves as a reminder what a golden era the small screen continues to enjoy. To see which shows take home the little shiny statues, read on for the information you need to watch an Emmy Awards 2025 stream from anywhere with a VPN.

After its critically acclaimed season 2, "Severance" co-leads this year's Primetime Emmy nominations with "The White Lotus" on 10 apiece. Throw in other heavy hitters like "Andor", "The Last of Us" and "Slow Horses" and you have an extremely strong set of contenders for Outstanding Drama Series. While "Adolescence" will do battle with "Black Mirror" and "The Penguin" in the Limited Series category.

Producing the laughs this year have been the likes of "Hacks", "Abbott Elementary", "Only Murders in the Building" and "The Studio", all of which are nominated multiple times over. And talking of comedy, this year's ceremony at L.A.'s Peacock Theater will be presented by the phenomenally popular stand-up Nate Bargatze.

Any ceremony pitting Cate Blanchett (for "Disclaimer") against Michelle Williams ("Dying for Sex") and Bowen Yang ("Saturday Night Live") versus Harrison Ford ("Shrinking") has to be worth a watch. So keep reading to discover where to watch Emmy Awards 2025 streams no matter where in the world you are — and potentially for free!

Can I watch Emmy Awards 2025 in the U.K?

If you're traveling to the U.K. and wish to watch your domestic stream of the 2025 Emmy Awards, then you can use a VPN to do exactly that and avoid geo-restrictions.
