The Grammy Awards are just around the corner!
Get ready for a night filled with music, excitement, and heartfelt performances. Big names like Beyoncé, Billie Eilish, and Kendrick Lamar are in the spotlight, competing for various awards.
This year, the show is making a difference too. A portion of the event will focus on raising funds for those in the music industry who were affected by the recent wildfires in Los Angeles. It’s a great way to support the community while celebrating music.
Curious about how to catch the action? The 2025 Grammy Awards will go live on CBS and Paramount+ at 8 p.m. ET on Sunday, February 2. The event will take place at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
Before the main event, don’t miss the Premiere Ceremony streaming live at 3:30 p.m. ET. It will be hosted by songwriter Justin Tranter and can be watched on the Recording Academy’s YouTube channel and at live.GRAMMY.com.
Trevor Noah will return as the host for his fifth consecutive year, bringing his usual charm to the night.
Viewers can expect amazing performances from a star-studded lineup. Artists like Benson Boone, Shakira, and Teddy Swims are set to take the stage. There will even be special tributes to the late Quincy Jones and powerful performances honoring Los Angeles after the wildfires.
One of the biggest questions this year is about Beyoncé and whether she will finally win Album of the Year for her album “Cowboy Carter.” She’s already the most awarded artist in Grammy history, but this prestigious award has eluded her so far.
Competing for Album of the Year alongside her are Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Charli XCX, and others. Swift won this award last year for her album “Midnights,” and she’s nominated again for “The Tortured Poet’s Department.”
With 11 nominations, Beyoncé is poised for a big night, while Kendrick Lamar, Charli XCX, and Billie Eilish each received seven nominations.
The Best New Artist category is also buzzing with talent, featuring breakout stars like Chappell Roan and Sabrina Carpenter.
If you want to contribute to helping those affected by the wildfires, consider donating to the Los Angeles Fire Relief Effort through the Recording Academy and MusiCares. They’ve already donated $1 million to support those in need within the music community. You can find more information on their website.
