Grammys 2025: Everything to Know About Music’s Biggest Night

Music’s biggest night is here.

The Grammy Awards, which will take place on Sunday, Feb. 2 at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles will be hosted by Trevor Noah for the fifth year in a row.

Fans will be tuning in to catch their favorite artists walking the red carpet, performing this year’s biggest songs, presenting Gramophones, and perhaps taking some home during music’s biggest night.

Beyoncé could make history this year, extending her record after winning 32 Grammy Awards throughout her career. Meanwhile, new artists will gain recognition from the Recording Academy for the first time, a massive honor.

This year’s awards show will also be reimagined following the devastating Los Angeles wildfires. The Recording Academy and MusiCares launched the Los Angeles Fire Relief Effort To Support Music Professionals and has already raised over $4 million for people in the music industry affected by the wildfires.

Here’s everything to know about the 2025 Grammy Awards.

Who is nominated at the 2025 Grammy Awards?

The competition for the Grammys is especially stiff this year with many nominees vying for a highly-coveted Gramophone.

As mentioned, Beyoncé could extend her record as the winningest artist in Grammys history with any of her 11 nominations including record of the year, album of the year, song of the year and best country album with Cowboy Carter.

Following Beyoncé’s 11 nominations are Billie Eilish, Kendrick Lamar, Post Malone and Charli xcx — who taught everyone how to have a brat summer — with seven nods. Sabrina Carpenter, Taylor Swift and Chappell Roan — who may say something “controversial” should she take home a Gramophone — earned six nominations.

Meanwhile, producer Jack Antonoff and breakout country star Shaboozey whose song “A Bar Song” took over the airwaves received five nods from the Recording Academy. These are also Shaboozey’s first nominations.

Other first-time nominees include Morgan Wallen, Ingrid Michaelson, Willow and Kim Gordon, the latter who has been in the music industry for decades.

Who is performing at the 2025 Grammy Awards?

On Friday, Jan. 24, the Recording Academy announced a star-studded list of performers for the 2025 awards show which will surely keep fans singing and dancing all night long.

Nominees Benson Boone, Billie Eilish, Chappell Roan, Charli xcx, Doechii, RAYE, Sabrina Carpenter, Shakira, and Teddy Swims will take the stage at the Crypto.com Arena in honor of music’s biggest night.

Roan, 26, previously teased the performance she’s been working on for Sunday night saying she “loves” it and hopes audiences will too.

A second group of performers were announced on Wednesday, Jan. 29 to take part in a tribute to the late Quincy Jones.

The ceremony will feature “a star-studded salute to the life and legacy of Quincy Jones, and touching tributes celebrating the spirit of the city of Los Angeles” following the fires that destroyed thousands of structures throughout the city, left tens of thousands scrambling for safety and killed 29 people.

Brad Paisley, Brittany Howard, Coldplay’s Chris Martin, Cynthia Erivo, Herbie Hancock, Jacob Collier, Janelle Monáe, John Legend, Lainey Wilson, Sheryl Crow, St. Vincent and Stevie Wonder will also be performing during the 2025 Grammys.

Who is hosting the 2025 Grammy Awards?

For the fifth consecutive year, Trevor Noah will be hosting the 2025 Grammy Awards.

Noah, 40, served as the master of ceremonies from 2021 to 2024. He told PEOPLE in January 2024 about how music’s biggest night is unlike other awards shows.

“In a weird way, I’ve come to understand, it’s almost like I’m at a huge party, and I’m trying to work while I’m at the party,” he said at the time. “And then I’ve also learned to have a good time. It’s one of the best concerts in my opinion.”

“I don’t think there are many shows that can rival what the Grammys puts on in terms of a collection of artists. Where else are you going to get to watch Dua Lipa, Burna Boy, Billie Eilish, you name it, on the same stage? That’s something I don’t take for granted and really enjoy.”

Before Noah began his stint as the Grammys host, Alicia Keys held the title from 2019-2020 and James Corden hosted in 2017 and 2018. Before the Cats actor’s hosting gigs, LL Cool J served as the emcee from 2012 to 2016.

Who is presenting at the 2025 Grammy Awards?

On Friday, Jan. 31, the Recording Academy announced who will be presenting at the prestigious awards ceremony.

Anthony Kiedis with Chad Smith, Cardi B, Gloria Estefan, Olivia Rodrigo, Queen Latifah, SZA, Taylor Swift, Victoria Monét and Will Smith will be taking the stage at the Crypto.com Arena to hand out Gramophones.
