Key highlights of the show will include special performances, notably the annual In Memoriam segment, a tribute to the late producer Quincy Jones, and numbers celebrating Los Angeles' vibrant spirit. The Grammy Awards this year will emphasize a renewed purpose, focusing on raising funds for wildfire relief efforts in the aftermath of devastating fires that impacted many homes, including those belonging to figures in the entertainment industry.

In recognition of the challenges faced by the community, CBS has noted the show will honor the bravery of first responders who have been instrumental in protecting lives during these crises. This commitment to the spirit of resilience will also play a significant role throughout the ceremony.
