Stand-up comedian and former The Daily Show host Trevor Noah is taking on hosting duties for the evening, which will see exciting live performances from the likes of Harry Styles, Lizzo and Sam Smith, among others.

Viewers can also expect a moving celebration of music icons that we lost in 2022, including Loretta Lynn, Fleetwood Mac's Christie McVie and Migos star Takeoff, during a special In Memoriam section.

Of course, the main event will be the awards themselves, with a stellar mix of talent in the running for recognition this year, including Doja Cat, Steve Lacy, Beyoncé, Adele, ABBA and Kendrick Lamar.

Wet Leg are one of several acts representing the United Kingdom on an international stage, with the Isle of Wight indie band riding high after their debut album was certified gold and shortlisted for the Mercury Music Prize.

Co-founder Rhian Teasdale told the Grammys: "Well, it's so weird to see us nominated, for one. Then it's so weird to see us sandwiched between like, Karen O [of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs] and Björk in the Alternative Album [category] — all these really legitimate artists."

Boasting the most nominations this year in Beyoncé, with nine nominations for her tracks from Renaissance, only heightening the extreme demand for tickets to her corresponding tour – which have been reaching astronomical prices online.

The Grammys are one of the highlights of an eventful period for the entertainment industry, which also includes other glitzy ceremonies such as the Academy Awards and the BAFTAs.

Want to know how you can watch the Grammy Awards 2023 tonight and who will be hosting them, as well as who will be performing alongside Styles? You've come to the right place. Read on to find out.

How to watch the Grammys in the US

In the US, the Grammy Awards will once again be broadcast on CBS. They're also set to be streamed live and also on demand via Paramount Plus.

Can you watch the Grammys live in the UK?

Though Paramount Plus is now available in the UK, it has not yet been confirmed whether the 2023 event will be shown on our region's version of the platform.

Fortunately, UK music fans will still be able to enjoy all the action from the night by tuning into the livestream directly from the Grammys website – visit live.grammy.com.

Be warned though, it's a big commitment to make, with the main stream not due to start until 1am GMT. It will then continue through most of the night, with final trophy scheduled to be handed out at approximately 4:30am GMT.

If you want to catch a glimpse of the glamour before heading to bed, consider tuning into Entertainment Weekly's red carpet coverage, which will be available on their YouTube channel from 11:30pm GMT.
