The World Music Awards is the only truly international Music Awards ceremony featuring the world's best selling artists. Unlike other shows, these awards are decided by the public as opposed to an industry panel.

Sales figures are reported to the organization by the record companies and the national member groups of the IFPI, the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry. The show will be broadcast in every major record-buying country in the world on terrestrial television. A 2 hour special will be beamed to 160 countries reaching over 1 billion viewers.
