Despite recent Los Angeles wildfires causing other award shows to postpone, the Recording Academy confirms the Grammys will continue with an added focus on wildfire relief efforts. The show will honor first responders and raise funds to support those affected by the disaster.

Harvey Mason Jr., Recording Academy CEO, emphasizes the show's importance: "In challenging times, music has the power to heal, comfort, and unite like nothing else. The Grammys will not only honor artistry and achievements but also serve as a platform to amplify resilience."

The Recording Academy's charitable arm, MusiCares, has already distributed $2 million in emergency aid to affected music industry professionals, offering financial, medical, and personal assistance. The organization continues to lead relief efforts alongside other industry partners.

The awards ceremony will be produced by Fulwell 73 Productions, with Ben Winston, Raj Kapoor, and Jesse Collins serving as executive producers.
