The awards ceremony will be shown live from 8pm ET (1am BST) on CBS and Paramount+ with Trevor Noah returning as host.

Back in January, the Academy postponed the planned show in Los Angeles, saying that the rise in the COVID-19 Omicron variant was to blame. It was then announced that the event would now take place in Las Vegas for the first time in the event’s history.

Following the Grammys, BTS will also perform a four-night residency at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

The K-pop group will bring their ‘Permission To Dance On Stage’ concert to the nearly 65,000-capacity stadium on April 8, 9, 15 and 16.  All four dates will be broadcast live at the same venue as the Grammys, in what’s being dubbed a “live play” event.

Their ‘Permission To Dance On Stage: Seoul’ concert live screenings recently reportedly took in over $32million (£24.5million) at the global box office.
