Deets: Music's Biggest Night returns! The Recording Academy has announced that the 2026 GRAMMYs will take place Sunday, Feb. 1, live at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Nominations for the 2026 GRAMMYs will be announced Friday, Nov. 7, 2025.

The annual GRAMMY Awards process has also undergone several updates, including the addition of two new GRAMMY Categories: Best Traditional Country Album and Best Album Cover. These expansive and exciting changes reflect both Academy member-submitted proposals and the Recording Academy’s ongoing commitment to evolving with the ever-changing musical landscape.

Hint for the Average Socialite: Now open for 72 Hours, Dove gives music lovers a chance to enter a sweepstakes, inviting consumers to dial 1-855-DOVE-WBD to enter for a chance to win tickets to the Grammy Awards or other sizzling prizes - no purchase necessary. 

Through its returning Hot Seats 2.0 initiative and new partnership with the Recording Academy, Dove is putting coveted music-moment tickets directly into the hands of fans via a creative sweepstakes. 

How it works: 

• Starting January 9, fans can dial into the Hot Seats hotline (1-855-DOVE-WBD) to record a voicemail entry — sharing what makes them feel hot, not burned — for the chance to win one of three Grand Prize Grammy tickets (plus a plus-one). 

• The hotline remains open for exactly 72 hours — a playful nod to Dove Whole Body Deo’s 72-hour all-over freshness. The hotline closes on Monday, Jan. 12, 12:01 a.m. ET.
