Addison Rae, Alex Warren, Katseye, Leon Thomas, Lola Young, Olivia Dean (pictured), sombr, and the Marías are nominated for Best New Artist at the 2026 Grammys, and today it's been confirmed that they'll be performing during a Best New Artist segment at both the show and Spotify's pre-Grammys Best New Artist Party.
Also confirmed today as a Grammys 2026 performer is returning guest Sabrina Carpenter, who's up for six nominations this year: Record Of The Year, Album Of The Year, Song Of The Year, Best Pop Solo Performance, Best Pop Vocal Album, and Best Music Video.
Trevor Noah will return to host this year's Grammys for the sixth consecutive year, but this will be his last time hosting. He began hosting the Grammys while he was still host of The Daily Show, which aired on Comedy Central, which falls under the CBS umbrella; last year it was announced that the Grammys inked a ten-year deal with Disney, meaning the show will move to ABC in 2027.
The 2026 Grammys will broadcast live from LA's Crypto.com Arena on Sunday, Feb. 1 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on the CBS Television Network and will be available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+. The Spotify event happens a few days before on Thursday, Jan. 29.
