The GRAMMY Awards 2025 will proceed as planned despite questions about the impact of the Los Angeles wildfire disaster.
Moments ago, Grammy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. and MusicCares head Tammy Hurt issued a joint statement announcing that the February 2 ceremony will proceed as planned, but with a fundraising component to support the relief efforts.
It read:
“Our hearts go out to everyone affected by the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. This city is our home, and we mourn the loss of life and destruction that have come to it in recent days.”
Continuing, the statement added:
“In close coordination with local authorities to ensure public safety and responsible use of area resources, the 67th Grammy Awards telecast on CBS on Feb. 2 will proceed as planned. This year’s show, however, will carry a renewed sense of purpose: raising additional funds to support wildfire relief efforts and honoring the bravery and dedication of first responders who risk their lives to protect ours.”
The GRAMMYs 2025 airs live from the Crypto.com arena on February 2 on CBS at 8-11:30 pm ET/5-8:30 pm PT.
