AWARDS
2022 Grammy Awards Postponed

The 64th Annual Grammy Awards ceremony was originally scheduled to be held at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on the 31st of January 2022; unfortunately, on the 5th of January, the official Grammy Awards website released a statement that the ceremony this year is being postponed. The huge event recognises the best recordings, compositions, and artists of the past year, which in this case runs from the 1st of September 2020 to the 30th of September 2021. However, we do not know at this time, when or if the award ceremony will take place, so all we can do is wait for further updates.

The full nominations list was revealed through a virtual livestream on the 23rd of November 2021; as well as the scheduled host for this year’s Grammy Awards ceremony, which is Trevor Noah, South African comedian, who also hosted the previous ceremony, the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards in March 2021.

The statement on the official Grammy website said, “After careful consideration and analysis with city and state officials, health and safety experts, the artist community and our many partners, the Recording Academy and CBS have postponed the 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards Show.”

The following is a Joint Statement from the Recording Academy and CBS:
“After careful consideration and analysis with city and state officials, health and safety experts, the artist community and our many partners, the Recording Academy and CBS have postponed the 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards Show. The health and safety of those in our music community, the live audience, and the hundreds of people who work tirelessly to produce our show remains our top priority. Given the uncertainty surrounding the Omicron variant, holding the show on January 31st simply contains too many risks. We look forward to celebrating Music’s Biggest Night on a future date, which will be announced soon.”

Hopefully, sometime soon we will hear of a new set date for the Grammy Award ceremony, as it would be a shame to miss it entirely this year and instead have winners announced online.
