Read on below, where we'll explain how to watch the People’s Choice Awards 2024 online and from anywhere now.
Here just like everywhere else, “Barbenheimer” continues to dominate. Pink plastic colossus Barbie leads with eight nominations (10 if you include soundtrack nods for Dua Lipa and Nicki Minaj, for Song of the Year and Collaboration Song of the Year), while Oppenheimer accrued only six. One of those is Movie of the Year where it faces stiff competition from Fast X, The Little Mermaid, Guardians of the Galaxy V. 3, and, of course, Barbie.
In the TV categories, Only Murders in the Building rules the roost with an impressive seven nominations. The PCAs will also honor fan-favorites from the world of music, with newer artists like Ice Spice and Jelly Roll sharing the short list with Beyoncé and Taylor Swift.

How to watch the People’s Choice Awards 2024 outside your country
Out of the country for work or pleasure? If so, you’ll likely encounter geo-blocking restrictions when trying to access your local streaming service, which means you won’t be able to watch the People’s Choice Awards 2024 online while you’re traveling.
Luckily, the best VPN – otherwise known as a virtual private network – provides a simple solution. It alters your IP address to make it appear like you’re somewhere else. While this can be used for privacy, it can also be used to access your preferred streaming platform back home, even when you're out of the country.

Can I watch the People’s Choice Awards 2024 online in Canada?
Sadly not. NBC and Peacock are both exclusive to the US at preset, so Canadian film, TV and music junkies will have to look elsewhere for their entertainment fix.
Currently traveling abroad? If you're not in the US right now, don't fret - just grab a good VPN and you'll be able to connect to your favorite services and stream your usual TV shows and films like you would back home.
Can I watch the People’s Choice Awards 2024 online in the UK?
It’s the same situation as outlined above. NBC and Peacock don’t offer their services outside of the US, and there aren’t any broadcasters that we know of who’ve purchased the rights to the star-studded awards ceremony in the UK.
Out of the country right now? If you’re away from home when the People’s Choice Awards 2024 show is being broadcast, simply download a good VPN. That way you can connect to your usual streaming services no matter where you are.
Can I watch the People’s Choice Awards 2024 online in Australia?
Aussies are out of luck too. NBC and it’s streaming platform Peacock aren’t available outside the States, so showbiz junkies situated Down Under won't be able to watch the People’s Choice Awards 2024.
Currently away from home? If you’re traveling but want to watch People’s Choice Awards 2024 online, you can simply download a VPN to connect to the same VOD service you pay for back home.
