Grammy House Returns to Grammy Week, Expands to Four Days of Programming
The Recording Academy’s Grammy House is returning during Grammy Week, running from Wednesday, Jan. 28, to Saturday, Jan. 31, in Los Angeles. This year, Grammy House is expanding to four days with new events and panels. Grammy House was one of many Grammy Week events that was canceled last year amid the L.A. wildfires. Through immersive experiences, interactive installations and digital storytelling, the cultural hub will serve to honor today’s dynamic musical landscape, foster innovation, and cultivate meaningful connections between Recording Academy members, artists, fans, and the broader music community. One of many firsts at this year’s Grammy House is an entire day dedicated to Grammy U, featuring a Masterclass and first-ever mini music festival. The Grammy Week destination will also feature Grammy Awards merchandise for sale and an Academy Corner, with information about Recording Academy membership and all Grammy organization entities including the Grammy Museum, MusiCares, Grammy U, and The Latin Recording Academy. “After a highly successful debut in 2023, an impactful return in 2024, and a pop-up in New York City last summer, we are thrilled to bring Grammy House back to Grammy Week in Los Angeles, programmed with even more events designed to bring our music community together,” Harvey Mason jr. , CEO of the Recording Academy, said in a statement. “The Recording Academy serves as a microphone for the voices of today and tomorrow, and we look forward to honoring and celebrating those voices at Grammy House.” The event will kick off on Wednesday Jan. 28 at 10 a.m. with a “Land Welcoming” provided by the San Gabriel Band of Mission Indians Gabrieleno/Tongva.
