Dick Clark Productions and Tubefilter announced the star-studded nominees list for the “2023 Streamy Awards” (Streamys) – creators’ biggest night – with award categories recognizing the top content creators across Beauty, Comedy, Food, Gaming, Music, Podcasts, Sports, and more. The show will take place Sunday, August 27 at 6pm PT / 9pm ET and will stream LIVE on Streamy Awards social channels.
Sixteen-time Streamy nominee and 7-time winner MatPat, creator of The Game Theorists, will host this year’s Streamy Awards, which is the top recognition for creators. With over 36 million subscribers, 8 billion total views, and 100 million monthly views, MatPat has built a dedicated fan base around his network of Theory channels, educating viewers while unearthing the secrets behind fashion, film, food, and gaming.
"I've always been a huge fan of THE STREAMY AWARDS as a way to showcase and elevate the incredible talent in the digital video space. Hosting THE STREAMY AWARDS is like getting to throw a party for people I admire and whose content I love, and I’m thrilled to emcee an event that means so much in the community,” said MatPat. “This is going to be a pretty extraordinary night – there will definitely be some special moments that no one has ever seen at the Streamys before – and I've been given the unbelievable chance to put my own twist on things this time. I can't wait!”
The 13th annual Streamys will bring the internet’s most notable creators together in one room for an evening of celebration, collaboration, and unexpected moments. Building on the show’s legacy as “a crystal ball of culture” (Forbes), this year’s Streamy Awards will double-down on its innovative format and creator-first approach.
In a groundbreaking first, the Streamy Awards, in collaboration with Rolling Stone, will introduce the Sound of the Year award. The nominees for this honor include the year's most impactful songs that have dominated content creation on social media and resonated across popular culture. Rolling Stone Sound of the Year nominees are: Area Codes by Kaliii, Boy’s a liar Pt. 2 by PinkPantheress and Ice Spice, GOATED. by Armani White, Here With Me by d4vd, In Ha Mood by Ice Spice, Made You Look by Meghan Trainor, Players by Coi Leray, Pretty Girls Walk by Big Boss Vette, Unholy by Sam Smith and Kim Petras, and What It Is by Doechii.
This year’s nomination highlights:
Leading the nominations is MrBeast with five nods for Creator of the Year, Collaboration, Creator for Social Good, and Creator Product. His Feastables venture also received a Streamys Brand Award nomination for the Brand Engagement award.
The Breakout Creator award showcases the freshest emerging talent in the creator space – nominees include Alix Earle, Drew Afualo, Dylan Mulvaney, Jake Shane (octopusslover8), and Keith Lee.
Streamer of the Year nominees reflect a growing influence of Twitch personalities including HasanAbi, Quackity and xQc, who also all received nominations for the Just Chatting award.
After his stint as THE STREAMY AWARDS host in 2022, Airrack is back in the spotlight with nominations for multiple awards, including Creator of the Year and First Person.
Rhett & Link's “Good Mythical Morning” scores its ninth consecutive nomination for Show of the Year. The duo could take home their third Show of the Year award, after winning previously in 2019 and 2022.
Global celebrities Hailey Rhode Bieber, Jonas Brothers, Kate Hudson, Lili Reinhart, Camila Mendes, Madelaine Petsch, and Paris Hilton all received nominations this year for the Crossover award, which recognizes public figures embracing digital culture and demonstrating best practices.
Streamys Highlights
The show’s average viewership over the past three years (2020-2022) is 6.4 million views. The 2022 show streamed on host Airrack’s YouTube channel, which marked a first for the Streamys.
