The 7th Annual Streamy Awards was the seventh installment of the Streamy Awards honoring the best in American streaming television series and their creators. The awards were broadcast live from Twitter on September 26, 2017 from The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California. They were hosted by YouTube star Jon Cozart. Awards for Best Comedy Series and Best Drama Series were introduced for the 2017 Streamys to put a greater emphasis on original series, and the performance awards were not split by gender as they had been in previous years in an effort to make the awards more inclusive. The 2017 Streamys also featured a shift towards independent content creators.
