At a press conference, Bill Roedy, president of MTV Networks International, predicted it will be the largest show in the history of MTV Europe. The broadcast will be available globally to around 2 billion TV viewers.Roedy explained that in commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin wall, MTV had decided to make an exception to its rule of only ever holding the awards show in a given city once.

The Berlin mayor Klaus Wowereit had offered MTV the opportunity of organizing a show in front of the Brandenburg Gate, an offer which Roedy decided to accept. The highlight of the show will be a 20-minute live performance by U2 in front of the Brandenburg Gate to stress the importance of this city as a symbol of global freedom.
