Los Angeles — Trevor Noah is returning to host the 67th Grammy Awards, marking his fifth consecutive year as master of ceremonies for the prestigious event. The live broadcast from the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles is scheduled for February 2, 2025.

Noah, known for his sharp wit and love for music, has become a familiar and celebrated face of the Grammys, blending comedy with heartfelt reverence for artists. His return further cements his reputation as a trusted host for “music’s biggest night.”
Grammy Week Events Impacted by Wildfires
While the main awards show is proceeding as planned, the Palisades and Eaton wildfires have prompted the Recording Academy to cancel several Grammy Week events. However, select high-profile gatherings will continue, including the iconic Clive Davis Pre-Grammys Gala, which will double as a fundraiser for wildfire relief. The FireAid benefit concert on January 30 in Los Angeles is also expected to generate significant support for affected communities.
Top Nominees and Anticipated Performances
This year’s Grammys promise a night of show-stopping performances and fierce competition. Beyoncé leads the nominations with an impressive 11 nods, including Song, Record, and Album of the Year for Texas Hold ’Em and Cowboy Carter. Other standout contenders include Kendrick Lamar, Billie Eilish, Post Malone, and Charli XCX, each with seven nominations. Meanwhile, Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, and Chappell Roan are hot on their heels with six nominations apiece.

“I know this sounds strange,” Noah confessed, “but the last thing you want is to disappoint the artists you admire. Imagine telling a joke, turning around, and seeing Beyoncé shaking her head. That moment would haunt me every time I heard her music. Bombing for a live audience? You can recover. For TV viewers? Sure, you’ll get comments online. But seeing disappointment from an icon you adore — that’s a nightmare. So I double my efforts to get it right.”
A Night of Music, Memories, and Meaning
With Noah’s steady hand at the helm, a star-studded lineup, and a mission to support wildfire victims, the 67th Grammy Awards are poised to be both a celebration of musical excellence and a testament to the power of community.
