2027 Grammy Awards: What to Expect and Who to Watch

The 69th annual Grammy Awards are scheduled to take place on February 7, 2027, at the Crypto.com Arena in downtown Los Angeles.

The ceremony will be broadcast on Disney’s ABC network and will be available for streaming on Hulu and Disney+ platforms. This transition marks the first time the event will air on ABC following the conclusion of the Recording Academy’s partnership with Paramount’s CBS, a relationship that lasted half a century.

Key Dates and Eligibility

The Recording Academy has established a specific timeline for the 2027 ceremony, including the window for eligible recordings and the voting process.

To be eligible for nomination, recordings must have been released between August 31, 2025, and August 28, 2026.

The official nominations for the 2027 ceremony are set to be announced on November 16, 2026.

Following the nomination announcement, the final voting period will open on December 10, 2026, and will close on January 7, 2027.

Hosting and Production

Organizers have not yet announced a host for the 69th Grammy Awards.

The search for a new host follows the departure of Trevor Noah, who began hosting the ceremony in 2021. Noah stated that his role at the 68th ceremony would be his final appearance as the host of the event.
