With the ongoing tragic wildfires that are still happening in Los Angeles, there have been questions on whether the 2025 Grammys ceremony will still proceed this February 2.
A lot of people within the entertainment industry have been affected by the tragedy as they lost their homes. The movie awards season has also been impacted as events have been canceled and nomination announcements are delayed.
Is the 2025 Grammys Still Happening This February 2?
Recording Academy has confirmed that they are proceeding with the 2025 Grammys ceremony in Los Angeles this February 2.
The show will be broadcast live on CBS the Crypto.com Arena. There is still no emcee set yet for music's biggest night.
Aside from awarding the best music artists, the telecast will also raise funds to support those who have been affected by the tragic wildfires and honor the first responders.
"Our hearts go out to everyone affected by the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. This city is our home, and we mourn the loss of life and destruction that have come to it in recent days,” Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. and Tammy Hurt, chair of the board of trustees, said in a letter sent to the members.
"In close coordination with local authorities to ensure public safety and responsible use of area resources, the 67th Grammy Awards telecast on CBS on Feb. 2 will proceed as planned. This year’s show, however, will carry a renewed sense of purpose: raising additional funds to support wildfire relief efforts and honoring the bravery and dedication of first responders who risk their lives to protect ours."
There are no details yet on how the fundraiser elements will be integrated into the telecast. More announcements are expected in the coming weeks.
