Disney takes over the Grammys: here’s when and where the 2027 ceremony will air

• The Grammy Awards ceremony will head to the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on February 7, 2027, and ABC, Hulu, and Disney+ will broadcast the event throughout The United States.
• Organizers will announce official nominations for the Grammy Awards on November 16, 2026, which will cover music that artists released between August 2025 and 2026.
• This live transition forms part of an ambitious Disney strategy to dominate live event viewership during the first quarter of 2027.

Music and pop culture lovers must mark February 7, 2027, on their calendars, as the Grammy Awards will debut a new home under the Disney wing; after five decades of history with CBS, the most important gala in the music industry will move to ABC and the Hulu and Disney+ streaming services for its 69th edition.

For our Latino community in The United States, this change facilitates access to the ceremony from mobile devices and digital platforms, allowing fans to enjoy live performances from anywhere. The event will return to the iconic Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, consolidating the city as the epicenter of the musical celebration that recognizes the best of global talent.

Calendar and voting phases for the 2027 gala on Disney

The road to the golden gramophone will formally begin with the announcement of nominees on November 16, 2026, following an eligibility period that closes in August of that same year; in this regard, Grammy Awards Academy members will participate in a first round of voting from October 12 to 22, 2026, followed by the final vote concluding in January 2027.

Although the organization has not yet officially confirmed the production, Ben Winston will likely maintain the creative leadership that has refreshed the show’s format since 2021; likewise, Harvey Mason Jr., CEO of the Academy, described this move as a “new and bold chapter” that seeks to expand the impact of the music that moves the world with Disney as an ally.

Disney’s master strategy in The United States

The acquisition of the Grammy Awards rights positions Disney as the undisputed giant of live broadcasting for the start of 2027; similarly, Rita Ferro, an executive at The Walt Disney Company, highlighted that the company will concentrate the Super Bowl (via ABC and ESPN), the Academy Awards, and now the big night of music within a few weeks.

This accumulation of high-audience events in The United States allows the company to offer continuous and attractive programming for both viewers and advertisers; with this move, the 69th edition of the awards will not only celebrate artistic excellence but will also inaugurate an era of massive digital distribution for one of the most-watched spectacles on the planet.
