Billboard will be following along, starting with the Grammy Premiere ceremony — streaming at live.Grammy.com and on the Recording Academy’s YouTube page starting at 3:30 p.m. ET/12:30 p.m. PT. Then the prime-time broadcast kicks off at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on CBS and streaming on Paramount+, where the final 2026 prizes will be doled out and a host of all-star performers will hit the stage.
You can find our complete winners list, updating live all night, below.
One of the most-watched races is album of the year, where first-time nominees in the category Leon Thomas, Clipse and Tyler, the Creator will face off against AOTY nominee vets Bad Bunny, Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter, Lady Gaga and Kendrick Lamar. But all eight nominees have something in common: None of them has ever won in the category before, so someone is going home with their first-ever album of the year winner.
Thomas is up for his breakthrough album Mutt; Clipse (brother duo Pusha T and Malice) are up for their comeback album Let God Sort Em Out; Tyler is up for CHROMAKOPIA; Bunny is up for DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS; Bieber is up for SWAG; Carpenter is up for Man’s Best Friend; Gaga is up for MAYHEM; and Lamar is up for GNX.
Lamar heads into the show as the top nominee, with nine total nods, followed by Gaga and producers Jack Antonoff and Cirkut with seven apiece and Bunny, Carpenter, Thomas and mixing engineer Serban Ghenea with six. But who will leave the top winner? Follow along all night with Billboard below.
