ESPN will broadcast 18th Anniversary ESPY Awards from Nokia Theatre L.A. LIVE in Los Angeles on Wednesday, July 14, at 9 p.m. ET. The 2010 ESPY awards hosted by Seth Meyers will be available live in high-definition on ESPN HD.
The 2010 ESPY awards content will be available on ESPN multimedia platforms including ESPN.com, ESPN Mobile, ESPN Deportes and ESPN International.
Meyers will be joined by an all-star lineup of top athletes and entertainers to celebrate the best sports stories of the past 12 months, leading fans through the year’s best plays, biggest upsets and most outstanding performances across all sports.
Meyers is a gifted comedian, actor, and writer with several Emmy nominations, best known for his work on Saturday Night Live, the show he’s been on since 2001. Beginning in 2006, he has anchored the acclaimed “Weekend Update” segment as well as serving as the head writer for the series. He is also the executive producer on the upcoming feature film adaptation of the SNL sketch, “MacGruber.” Meyers is no stranger to The ESPYs, having been a presenter on The 2009 ESPYs.
For the first time fans will be able to vote on an ESPYs category during the show, and see the results of their vote live on the stage.
Maura Mandt, executive producer for The 2010 ESPYs said “In the ‘anything can happen’ atmosphere that comes with doing a live program, there is no better host for The 2010 ESPYs then Seth Meyers. Not only is he one of the most brilliant comedians, his enthusiasm for sports is sure to create some of the most memorable moments in ESPYs history.”
Meyers said “If you asked anyone I played sports with as a kid they would tell you ‘the only way Seth was making it to the ESPYs was as a host or presenter.”
