The 2027 Grammy nominations will be announced on Monday, November 16, 2026, the Recording Academy has confirmed, with a star-studded cast of presenters lined up to reveal the nominees across all 100 categories. The announcement will begin at 4:45 a.m. PT / 7:45 a.m. ET on Grammy.com and the official Grammys YouTube channel.
The full list of nominees will then be published on Grammy.com at 6 a.m. PT / 9 a.m. ET, according to the Academy’s viewing guide, which was updated on Friday, November 6. The ceremony itself — the 69th Grammy Awards — takes place on Sunday, February 7, 2027, live from Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, airing on ABC and streaming on Disney+ and Hulu.
Who is announcing the nominees
The presenters announced on November 6 include Olivia Dean, Kehlani, Juanes, Pharrell Williams, David Guetta, Herbie Hancock, Alan Menken, Amy Allen, Carly Pearce, Linda Perry, Renée Fleming, YUNGBLUD and Ziggy Marley, alongside Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. and Board of Trustees chair Dr. Chelsey Green.
Olivia Dean is one of the names to watch on nominations morning. The reigning Grammy winner for Best New Artist is widely expected to receive multiple nominations herself, including in the Album, Record and Song of the Year categories, according to awards coverage. Kehlani, who won two Grammys earlier this year, could also be in line for more nominations for her self-titled album, while Amy Allen has won Songwriter of the Year, Non-Classical, for the past two years.
What the 2027 Grammys will cover
The 2027 Grammys will recognise music released during the eligibility period from August 31, 2025, to August 28, 2026, according to the Academy. First-round voting, which determined the nominees, ran from October 12 to 22, 2026. After the nominees are announced, final-round voting runs from December 10, 2026, through January 7, 2027, to decide the winners.
That eligibility window matters: it means the 2027 ceremony does not simply cover everything released during the 2026 calendar year, and recordings must also have been entered for consideration to be eligible. The Academy’s guide stresses that appearing in the window does not guarantee a nomination.
A new broadcast home
The 2027 ceremony will be simulcast on ABC, Disney+ and Hulu, and the Academy has confirmed it will air one hour earlier than in the past — at 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT. Special live coverage of the nominations announcement will also feature on Good Morning America, with a wrap-up show at 9 a.m. ET / 6 a.m. PT.
For music fans, November 16 is now the date that matters. The presenters are set, the livestream is confirmed, and in just over a week the field for Music’s Biggest Night will finally be known.
