LAS VEGAS – The 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards will now broadcast live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Sunday, April 3 on the CBS Television Network. The show was originally scheduled for Jan. 31 at the Crypto.com Arena (former Staples Center) in downtown Los Angeles, but was postponed amid concerns surrounding the surge in Omicron variant cases.
Returning as master of ceremonies is Trevor Noah, Comedy Central’s EmmyAward-winning “The Daily Show” host and comedian. The GRAMMY Awards are produced by Fulwell 73 Productions for the Recording Academy. Raj Kapoor serves as show runner and executive producer alongside Ben Winston and Jesse Collins as executive producers, and Jeannae Rouzan-Clay as co-executive producer. Hamish Hamilton returns as director, and Eric Cook as supervising producer with Tabitha D’umo, Patrick Menton, Fatima Robinson, and David Wild as producers.
“We are excited to take the GRAMMYs to Las Vegas for the very first time, and to put on a world-class show,” says Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. “From the moment we announced the postponement of the original show date, we have been inundated with heartfelt messages of support and solidarity from the artist community. We are humbled by their generosity and grateful for their unwavering commitment to the GRAMMY Awards and the Academy’s mission. We appreciate the leadership CBS and our production partners at Fulwell 73 have shown during these challenging weeks and the flexibility of everyone who worked toward this solution.”
The show will also be available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+. Additional details about the dates and locations of other official GRAMMY Week events will be announced soon.
