The 2026 Grammy Awards show is this weekend. Here is everything you need to know about the event, including how to watch/stream from the comfort of your home and catch that all-star Ozzy Osbourne tribute.

How to Watch the Grammy Awards Premiere Ceremony

The first Grammy Award winners for 2026 will be revealed during the Grammy Awards Premiere Ceremony, which begins at 3:30 PM ET on Sunday at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles.

Several awards will be announced during the event, which will also include performances from various artists. Best Metal Performance nominees Spiritbox are among those scheduled to perform.

The Premiere Ceremony will stream live on the Recording Academy’s official YouTube channel and on Grammy.com.

Are Any Rock Bands Performing During the Grammys?

While several performers have already been announced for the Grammy Awards ceremony, including Sabrina Carpenter and Justin Bieber, only a few names from the world of rock have been revealed ahead of the event.

One of the biggest rock moments during the Grammys will be an all-star tribute to Ozzy Osbourne. Post Malone, Guns N’ Roses’ Slash and Duff McKagan, Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith, and musician and producer Andrew Watt will be involved in the performance to honor Osbourne, who died July 22, 2025, at the age of 76.

Watt produced Ozzy’s final two studio albums. The rest of the lineup has experience guesting on Osbourne’s songs or appearing at last year’s Back to the Beginning farewell event for Black Sabbath.
