The Soul Train Awards will make a comeback this November after spending over a year in limbo. BET announced that the prestigious music ceremony will air on November 27 across multiple networks including BET and CBS, marking the show’s return to television.
The awards show will be held in Chicago, the city where the original Soul Train program debuted decades ago. The event will broadcast at 8 p.m. ET, with additional details about performers, honorees, and the host to be revealed at a later date. BET’s president expressed enthusiasm about bringing the celebration back to its roots while honoring the artists and culture that defined the iconic franchise.
Spotify has stepped in as the exclusive streaming partner for the awards, joining forces with Toyota as a co-presenter. The streaming giant emphasized its commitment to supporting music culture and connecting artists with global audiences through the partnership. The Soul Train Awards originally launched in 1987 and continued annually until 2023, celebrating excellence in R&B and soul music.
