With the Republican National Convention taking over Cleveland this summer, the Alternative Press Music Awards were forced to relocated to a new venue and thought nothing would be better than the capital of Ohio, Columbus.
This year’s annual APMAs will be held at the Schottenstein Center on July 18th and will be hosted by All Time Low’s Alex Gaskarth and Jack Barakat for the second year in a row.
“We are so happy to be returning to the APMA‘s this year to host. Last year we didn’t make a lot of new friends (sad face emoji), so this year – we’re coming back as something no one can hate, politicians! We look forward to being part of this Punk Rock Convention. Get ready to vote – Stay tuned.”– Alex Gaskarth and Jack Barakat of All Time Low
“Fans are going to be blown away by all of the surprises we already have planned for this year’s APMA‘s. We’ve been working on the 2016 show since right after last year’s ended, and I already cannot wait to start announcing the initial line-up in the upcoming weeks.”– Alternative Press Founder and CEO Mike Shea
