Star Awards 20 (also SA20, Chinese: 红星大奖 20) was a double television award ceremony which was held in Singapore. It is part of the annual Star Awards organised by MediaCorp for the two free-to-air channels, MediaCorp Channels 8 and U. SA20 was broadcast live on Channel 8, on 20 April 2014 and 27 April 2014. The first ceremony was held at the MediaCorp TV Theatre while the second ceremony was held at Suntec Singapore International Convention and Exhibition Centre. The ceremonies will also be broadcast on 8 International and the second ceremony on Toggle, Astro AEC (SD) and Astro Quan Jia HD (HD).

As with the previous four years, viewers will be able to catch the presentation of the Professional awards (given out to backstage crew and scriptwriters) on Channel 8. The ceremony was aired live on April 20, while the annual SA prize presentation (for performance based and popularity awards) was aired on April 27. A post-show was held after the awards ceremony on April 27, which was broadcast on Channel U at 10.00pm.

The ceremony will celebrate its 20th year, hence the original title of Star Awards 2014 was renamed. Television drama The Dream Makers garnered 21 nominations, the most nominations in history since The Little Nyonya in 2009.

For the first time ever, a new category has been created for regional fans to be a part of this glitz and glamour. Fans in the respective territory can now cast their vote for the Most Popular Regional Artiste Award (China / Malaysia / Indonesia / Cambodia) in an online competition and decide which Singapore artiste is most popular in their country.

The results are based on the calculations from 3 international social media analysis systems, which measures the social media engagement of qualifying nominees. They must be active on at least one of the following platforms in order to qualify: Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
