MTV have revealed that seated tickets for fans to enjoy the EMAs at the Hydro next month will go on sale via public ballot.
Nicki Minaj will host the MTV EMAs, and Ed Sheeran and Ariana Grande are to perform at the event on Sunday, November 9 at the SSE Hydro.
The network will be making seated tickets available to purchase via a public ballot (created in conjunction with Ticketmaster) that will go live from noon today until noon on Monday, October 13.
Fans should register via the ballot which can be found at mtvema.com. You can also register at www.thessehydro.com/MTVEMA.aspx.
The ballot will be live for five days, at which point the system will randomly select from those that applied.
Those selected will be sent an email on Friday, October 17 with a link to Ticketmaster and a personal password to purchase tickets to the MTV EMAs.
A maximum of four tickets can be bought by any one person and tickets will be priced as follows:
Seated, off-camera, unrestricted view of the show: £65
Seated, off-camera, restricted view of the show: £40
Ticketholders under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
MTV EMAs seated tickets are only available from Ticketmaster, and only via the MTV EMAs public ballot.
The network urges fans not buy tickets from illegal sources as they will not be valid for the 2014 MTV EMAs.
In addition, thousands more standing tickets will be made available for fans via a public casting for enthusiastic music lovers to be in on-camera positions as part of the show itself.
The 2014 MTV EMAs Casting will take place on November 1 and 2 in Glasgow with full details to be revealed in the coming weeks.
Competitions to win standing tickets to watch the live show from an exclusive area at the MTV EMAs - the 'Hyperspace' - are also running across a variety of media outlets locally and internationally.
Bruce Gillmer, Music/Talent Programming and Events and Executive Producer of the MTV EMAs, said: "We really appreciate our warm welcome from the people of Glasgow and we want as many local fans as possible to be part of our flagship international event.
"The incredible energy of Glasgow 's music fans will be a key driver for the MTV EMAs - we want the artists and fans around the world to truly FEEL IT!"
Councillor Gordon Matheson, Leader of Glasgow City Council and Chair of Glasgow City Marketing Bureau, added: "The public ballot and the casting opportunities announced today will allow thousands of local music fans to be at the heart of one of the world's greatest music events in their city.
"The people of Glasgow love their music; we've got the best audiences for music events in the UK, which makes the city a must-play destination for any global act.
"Combined with our award-winning SSE Hydro, which will provide a spectacular backdrop to the show, and the myriad of world-class talent set to grace the stage the atmosphere on the night is sure to be electric."
Nominations to the 2014 MTV EMAs revealed that Katy Perry leads the race with nominations in seven categories, while Ariana Grande follows closely with nods in six categories. Pharrell Williams and 5 Seconds of Summer are each up for five awards. One Direction, Nicki Minaj, Iggy Azalea, Eminem, Sam Smith and Kiesza all received four MTV EMA nominations each.
