TThe date for the 2022 Grammys has been revealed, announcing a return to the ceremony’s pre-pandemic schedule.

Next year’s Grammys will take place on 31 January 2022, the Recording Academy announced on Wednesday.

The show will be broadcast live from the Staples Centre in Los Angeles.

The Grammys usually take place early in the year. In 2021, however, the ceremony was delayed from January to March due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The 2022 date matches the Grammys’ usual schedule. The 2020 ceremony was held on 26 January; the 2019 one took place on 10 February.
