The Asian Television Awards is an appreciation to recognize and reward programming and production excellence in the Asian television industry. Held every December, the Awards draws about 1,400 entries each year from a wide range of broadcasters, including free-to-air TV stations and pay-TV platforms as well as many independent production houses in Asia. Every year, at least nine jury sessions are held in several Asian cities including Kuala Lumpur and Singapore, where the panel of judges of over 15 countries evaluate and select the entries in closed sessions. The results are then tabulated and audited by PriceWaterhouseCoopers, and the winners will be announced during the Awards' night in Singapore.

Asian TV Awards is organized by Television Asia Plus magazine, established in 1994 and formerly organized by Singapore Broadcasting Corporation in 1987-1993.

Launched in 1987, the Awards usually comprises over 30 categories including Best Documentary Program, Best News Program, Best Cinematography, Best Current Affairs Presenter and many more.
