US Trends

where can we watch the grammys

You can watch the 2026 Grammys on CBS (in the US) and via live stream on Paramount+, plus several live‑TV streaming services that carry CBS such as Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, and FuboTV.

Main ways to watch (U.S.)

  • CBS on cable or antenna at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT on Sunday, February 1, 2026.
  • Paramount+ streaming:
    • Premium plan: live stream of the Grammys as they air.
* Essential (cheaper) plan: on‑demand access the following day, not live.
  • Live‑TV streaming services that include CBS in many markets:
    • Hulu + Live TV.
* YouTube TV.

* FuboTV.

Think of it like a “music Super Bowl Sunday”: if a service has live CBS in your area, you’re almost certainly set to watch.

Red carpet and pre-show

  • Main red carpet and arrivals are shown on CBS and often on entertainment channels (like E! in some regions) and on various online streams the same afternoon/evening.
  • Premiere Ceremony (where most awards are handed out) streams for free on:
    • Recording Academy’s YouTube channel.
* live.GRAMMY.com.

Watching outside the U.S.

Availability depends a lot on your country:

  • In the UK, there is currently no official full live broadcast; highlights, performances, and speeches tend to appear quickly on YouTube and social platforms after the show.
  • In Canada, some broadcasters and streamers (for example, Citytv and Citytv+ in recent years) have carried the Grammys live; check your local listings or app for “68th Grammy Awards.”
  • In other regions, check:
    • Local TV listings for channels that syndicate major U.S. award shows.
    • Regional streaming apps that list “Grammys” or “Grammy Awards” in their live events.
