The 2022 MAMA Awards took place on November 29 and 30, 2022 at the Kyocera Dome Osaka, Japan. It was hosted by singer Jeon Somi and actor and singer Park Bo-gum. It was broadcast live through music channel Mnet.

On August 23, 2022, CJ E&M announced that the "Mnet Asian Music Awards" would be rebranded as simply the "MAMA Awards" going forward. The theme for the ceremony wa "K-POP World Citizenship" with sub-themes per night: "The world we build together" for first day, and "We are K-POP" for the second. The ceremony is the first to carry the new rebranded name, the first to take place overseas during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the 24th in the show's history.
