The Recording Academy has announced that over 20 artistes will perform during the prestigious event, which will be hosted by comedian and TV presenter Trevor Noah at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
The ceremony will be broadcast live on CBS and available for streaming on Paramount+.
Top Artistes Set to Perform
Fans can look forward to electrifying performances from some of today’s biggest pop stars, including Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter, Billie Eilish, and Charli XCX.
Music legends like Shakira, John Legend, and Stevie Wonder will also grace the stage.
However, Beyoncé—who made history as the most-nominated artiste of 2025—is not expected to perform.
Similarly, Taylor Swift, who earned six nominations this year, will not be taking the stage.
Special Tributes and Performances
As part of the event, the Recording Academy will present a special In Memoriam segment to honour music industry figures who passed away in the past year.
One of the key highlights will be a grand tribute to legendary producer Quincy Jones, who died in 2024.
In addition, there will be a moving segment dedicated to the city of Los Angeles, following the devastating wildfires that recently destroyed thousands of homes, including those of several entertainment industry figures.
It has been confirmed by a news source that this year’s Grammys will help raise funds for wildfire relief efforts while celebrating the courage of first responders.
Among the artistes participating in these tributes are British actress and singer Cynthia Erivo, Coldplay’s Chris Martin, and American musician Sheryl Crow.
