Comedian and television host Trevor Noah will return to the Grammy Awards stage one last time. The Recording Academy and CBS have confirmed that Noah will host the Grammy Awards for a sixth — and final — time on February 1, 2026.

The ceremony will take place at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles and will air live on CBS from 8pm to 11:30pm ET (5pm to 8:30pm PT). Alongside hosting duties, Noah will also serve as an executive producer of the show. His first stint as Grammy host began in 2021, during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Ben Winston of Fulwell Entertainment, the show’s executive producer, praised Noah’s impact on the awards ceremony, calling him “the most phenomenal host” the Grammys have had in recent years. Winston highlighted Noah’s sharp humour, intelligence and deep appreciation for music and artists, noting that his contribution to the show has been “truly spectacular”.

The 2026 ceremony will mark the Grammys’ final broadcast on CBS after more than five decades. The awards have aired on the network since 1973, but will move to Disney platforms from 2027 following a 10-year deal announced in 2024. Viewers in the US will also be able to stream the 2026 ceremony live and on demand on Paramount+, depending on subscription tier.

This year’s nominations are led by Kendrick Lamar with nine nods. Lady Gaga, along with producers Jack Antonoff and Cirkut, follow closely with seven nominations each. Several other major artists, including Bad Bunny, Sabrina Carpenter, SZA and Tyler, the Creator, also feature prominently on the shortlist.

Performers and presenters for the night are expected to be announced in the coming days. The 2026 Grammy Awards will be produced by Fulwell Entertainment for the Recording Academy, with Ben Winston, Raj Kapoor, Jesse Collins and Trevor Noah serving as executive producers.
