The 2017 ESPY Awards will be on Wednesday, July 12. Here is how to watch the red carpet show online for the event online via live streaming.

It’s the day after the MLB All-Star Game. In the American sports world, that can only mean one thing: it’s time for the ESPYs. The 2017 ESPY Awards will begin on Wednesday, July 12 at 8:00 p.m. ET. It will be hosted by former Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos Super Bowl winning quarterback Peyton Manning. The nationally televised award show will be aired on ABC.

However, this is about the red carpet event. 2017 ESPYs Red Carpet Live begins promptly at 5:00 p.m. ET outside of the Microsoft Theater at L.A. Live in Los Angeles, California. The red carpet part of the event will be shown nationally on ESPN. The available live stream can be found on WatchESPN.

This event is held on the day after the MLB All-Star Game for a reason, as it is one of the slowest days on the American professional sports calendar. By choosing to make the ESPYs held in the middle of July, it allows most of the best athletes in the world to be in attendance for the popular awards show.

The red carpet part of the event is usually a huge hit, as the sports and popular culture media collide at once in sunny Los Angeles. In a city full of stars, Los Angeles is usually really bumping when the ESPYs come to town in the middle of July.

Date: Wednesday, July 12
Time: 5:00 p.m. ET
Location: Los Angeles, Calfornia
Venue: Microsoft Theater at L.A. Live
TV Info: ESPN

Be sure to flip over from ESPN to ABC around 8:00 p.m. ET to not miss a second of ESPYs action on Wednesday evening. It should be a good time with Manning emceeing the one-of-a-kind sports awards ceremony.
