Music’s biggest night is taking over Las Vegas. After the sudden move of the ceremony from January to April, the Grammys had to exit Los Angeles for the time being to find an accommodating space. Now set for the MGM Grand Garden Arena, the Recording Academy will honor the year’s best in the industry on April 3 from 5-8:30 p.m. PT/8-11:30 p.m. ET. Those with cable can tune in live on CBS, while anyone who has cut the cord can stream live and on demand on Paramount Plus. What’s more, anyone can watch the Grammy Awards Premiere Ceremony ahead of the main telecast on live.grammy.com and the Recording Academy’s YouTube channel.
