The Grammy Awards ceremony, which has aired on CBS for over 50 years, has a new home. Disney has snatched the rights to the annual music awards show in a ten-year deal, a major loss for Paramount.
The Grammys will air on ABC, Hulu and Disney+ from 2027 as part of the deal, taking it through to 2036. CBS had previously struck a ten-year deal in 2016 to keep the rights through to 2026, breaking the record for a broadcast partnership between an awards show and broadcaster.
The network has been home to the awards since 1973, when it snapped up the rights from ABC, which aired the show in 1971 and 1972.
NBC previously aired it between 1959 and 1970. According to sources, CBS and The Recording Academy did not reach an agreement within the two sides’ exclusive negotiating window but CBS remained interested in retaining the Grammys, with talks continuing after the end of the exclusive period when the Academy also opened negotiations with other interested parties.
