In under a month, the 67th Annual Grammy Awards hosted by the Recording Academy will pay tribute to the brightest and best in the music industry. Every year, music professionals come together for this prestigious event, recognizing excellence in music spanning various genres and regions. The upcoming Grammys will present a total of 94 unique awards, encompassing categories like the esteemed “Album of the Year” and “Best Song written for Visual Media.”
Nominations for these highly sought-after accolades, as well as the event’s host, can vary annually. However, one consistent factor throughout the years has been the venue for the Grammys: Crypto.com Arena. Formerly known as the Staples Center, this location typically serves as the backdrop for the award ceremony, with occasional deviations. Notably, in 2022, the Recording Academy relocated the event to Las Vegas due to a rise in COVID-19 cases, while the 2018 Grammys were held at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
