Grammys 2021 Postponed to March
The 2021 Grammy Awards have been postponed from the originally scheduled date of January 31 to March 21. The Recording Academy added the new date to their official calendar with a heading that reads “63rd Annual Grammy Awards.” The Grammy Awards Premiere Ceremony will also take place on March 21.
Rolling Stone was first to report the news of the postponement, which is due to COVID-19 concerns. Pitchfork has reached out to representatives for the Recording Academy and CBS.
According to Rolling Stone, the Academy was planning to hold the Grammys without an audience or nominated artists, with only presenters and performing artists attending. Last June, it was announced that the Academy Awards would be postponed from their original date of February 28 to April 25.
