Olivia Dean, Kehlani and Pharrell Williams to Help Reveal 2027 Grammy Nominations on Nov. 16
Olivia Dean, Kehlani, Amy Allen and Pharrell Williams will help announce the nominees for the 2027 Grammy Awards, with the livestream starting Monday, Nov. 16 at 7:45 a.m. ET / 4:45 a.m. PT, Billboard reported on Nov. 6.
The Recording Academy, the organisation that runs the Grammys, will reveal nominees in all 100 categories. The complete list will be published on Grammy.com and Billboard.com at 9 a.m. ET / 6 a.m. PT, and the nominees will also be shown on the Grammys YouTube channel. A wrap-up show follows the livestream at the same 9 a.m. ET time.
Other names on the programme include Alan Menken, Carly Pearce, David Guetta, FYÜTCH & Aura V, Herbie Hancock, Israel Houghton, Juanes, Linda Perry, Meghan Foley & Michelle Holme, Renée Fleming, YUNGBLUD and Ziggy Marley. Harvey Mason jr., the Grammys chief executive, and Dr. Chelsey Green, chair of the Recording Academy Board of Trustees, are also set to appear.
The event has a few firsts. For the first time, the nominations presentation will be broadcast live from The Square in Times Square, presented by Hilton. Good Morning America will also provide special live coverage of the announcement.
The ceremony itself is set for Sunday, Feb. 7, 2027. The 69th annual Grammy Awards will air live at 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT on ABC, and it will stream on Disney+ and Hulu. The show will be held at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles and will start one hour earlier than in past years. Grammy.com said in May that the ceremony would be simulcast exclusively on ABC, Disney+ and Hulu for the first time.
Olivia Dean has a personal link to the awards. She won Best New Artist at the 2026 Grammys, the 68th annual ceremony, and she returns to the stage this month as one of the faces announcing the next round.
For anyone following the season, the morning of Nov. 16 is the key moment. The livestream begins at 7:45 a.m. ET, and the full list of 2027 nominees arrives at 9 a.m. ET.
