Euro Top 20
The MTV Euro Top 20 (previously known as the ''MTV European Top 20'') is a music chart show on MTV Europe that played Europe's most popular songs and artists. The original format of the show had been shown on the majority of the regional MTV channels in Europe and aired from 1988 until 2009. Variations of the chart still exist today though with new titles such as the MTV Euro Top Chart, Euro Hitlist or MTV Top 20.

In October 2003, the show was rebranded as MTV Euro Top 20. The show was discontinued in April 2009.
