MTV Spring Break refers to the channel's annual spring break coverage, [29] [30] featuring numerous live performances from artists [31] and bands on location.

Background

MTV began its annual Spring break coverage in 1986, [38] [39] [40] [41] [42] setting up temporary operations in Daytona Beach, Florida, for a week in March, broadcasting live eight hours per day. "Spring break is a youth culture event", MTV's vice president Doug Herzog said at the time. "We wanted to be part of it for that reason. It makes good sense for us to come down and go live from the center of it, because obviously the people there are the kinds of people who watch MTV." [43]

After Fort Lauderdale started discouraging college students from vacationing there for Spring break in the mid-1980s, Daytona Beach, Florida mayor Larry Kelly appeared on national television to encourage college vacationers to come to Daytona Beach for Spring break instead. [44] [39] Soon after, beer and cigarette brands started advertising in Daytona Beach for Spring break. He later called that decision a mistake as locals experienced many problems during Spring break every year. [45] [46] [47] [48] Kelly's efforts to reign in the revelry included promoting athletic competitions called "Spring Games" to channel youthful energy in a wholesome direction, [49] and proposing that hotels be billed for the cost of sending police to respond to calls during Spring break. [50] Soon after he lost his election bid in 1993, Daytona cut ties with MTV.
