Grammys Finds New Home At Disney Under 10-Year Deal With Recording Academy
The Recording Academy and Disney have entered into a new 10-year global deal for the Grammy Awards to be exclusively simulcast on ABC, Hulu and Disney+ beginning in 2027, making The Walt Disney Company the first new home for the ceremony in 50 years.
As part of the deal, The Recording Academy will also produce multiple Grammy-branded music specials and additional new programming for audiences around the world across Disney’s platforms.
The Grammys adds to The Walt Disney Company’s slate of live event programming across entertainment and sports from the Oscars, CMA Awards and Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest to ESPN. In the first year of the agreement in 2027, ABC will present the Grammys, the Oscars and Super Bowl LXI.
“As The Walt Disney Company combines forces with the Recording Academy to open this exciting new chapter in the history of the Grammys, we do so with pride and gratitude,” says Dana Walden, Disney Entertainment Co-Chairman. “Live events have never been more important to our culture and industry, and we just acquired one of the crown jewels, adding to our portfolio of world-class programming across all genres.”
“We are completely thrilled to be bringing the Grammys and other new music programming to the Disney ecosystem,” says Harvey Mason Jr., Recording Academy CEO. “We are grateful to our long-standing partners at CBS and now honored to be joining with Disney, an iconic company where creators have always been at the forefront. This partnership represents another important milestone in the Academy’s transformation and growth, and strengthens our ability to fulfill our mission of uplifting and serving music people around the world.”
