Grammys Delayed Due To COVID-19

The Grammy Award ceremony isn’t going down this month. The Recording Academy has issued a statement announcing the shocking setback and delay in its annual televised ceremony. The organization went online to break the shocking news to the world. The current coronavirus pandemic has forced its decision to push the event to mid-March 2021.

“After thoughtful conversations with health experts, our host and artists scheduled to appear, we are rescheduling the 63rd Annual GRAMMY Awards to be broadcast Sunday, March 14, 2021. The deteriorating COVID situation in Los Angeles, with hospital services being overwhelmed, ICUs having reached capacity, and new guidance from state and local governments have all led us to conclude that postponing our show was the right thing to do. “

“Nothing is more important than the health and safety of those in our music community and the hundreds of people who work tirelessly on producing the show.”

“We want to thank all of the talented artists, the staff, our vendors and especially this year’s nominees for their understanding, patience and willingness to work with us as we navigate these unprecedented times.” #GRAMMYs
