It feels like the Oscars just happened, but the next big award show is right around the corner.

The 64th Grammy Awards take place on Sunday. All the big performers will be there, although Beyoncé isn’t nominated and Kanye is barred. And the latest news is that Jungkook, the youngest member of BTS, has tested positive for Covid-19. It isn’t clear yet how his illness will affect BTS’ scheduled performance.

The pandemic was what saw the Grammys delayed from their Jan. 31 original ceremony date. This year, we should see most performances take place live on stage, instead of last year’s hybrid Zoom in event.

Here’s everything you need to know about the 2022 Grammys.

Grammys 2022 start time

The Grammys take place on Sunday at at 5 p.m. PT/8 p.m. ET.

How to watch

The Grammys will be televised on CBS. If you’ve cut the cord (a cheaper option with major perks), you can livestream on YouTube TV, FuboTV, Hulu with Live TV and DirecTV Stream.

You can also stream the show live via Paramount+ for Premium subscribers for $10/month (the $5 ad-supported tier doesn’t support live CBS).

Now on its fourth name in three years, DirecTV Stream ties for most expensive at $70 (the other is Hulu Plus Live TV). The service does have its pluses, though — for example, it includes the flipper-friendly ability to swipe left and right to change channels. Additionally it includes some channels the other services can’t, including nearly 250 PBS stations nationwideRead our DirecTV Stream review.

There’s a lot to like about FuboTV — it offers a wide selection of channels and its sports focus makes it especially attractive to soccer fans or NBA, NHL and MLB fans who live in an area served by one of FuBoTV’s RSNs. It’s also a great choice for NFL fans since it’s one of three services, alongside YouTube TV and Hulu, with NFL Network and optional RedZone. Read our FuboTV review.
