The much-anticipated 64th Annual Grammy Awards are only days away, and its last list of performers was just announced.
Taking place on Apr. 3, 2022, at the MGM. Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, this year's Grammys was awaited by fans worldwide. It was initially set to happen last January but was postponed because of the uptick of COVID-19 Omicron cases in the United States.
Weeks after, the date was finalized on Apr. 3, but since April was the start of the season for most if not all sporting events, the usual Crypto.com arena was deemed unavailable for the event.
After looking for a possible venue that could host "Music's Biggest Night," the Academy finally pinned the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, marking this year's Grammys historic, as this is the Academy's first time at Sin City.
With the venue, date, and the nominees finally announced. The Recording Academy, starting Mar. 15, announced the first roster of performers.
