Some familiar faces to the Billboard charts are up for awards like Lady Gaga, Sabrina Carpenter, Doechii, Kendrick Lamar, The Weeknd, BLACKPINK’s ROSÉ, Bruno Mars, Tyler The Creator and Chappell Roan. Categories that we’ll be keeping tabs on include Record Of The Year, Song Of The Year, Best Pop Vocal Album, Best Rap Performance and, of course, the ever-polarizing Album Of The Year. The category is always a battleground for artists, but one has seemingly always made it out on top and that’s Taylor Swift. The singer currently has the most wins in that category with a total of four victories. Only time will tell if that impressive record of hers will be broken.
If you’re looking to tune into all the music action the glitzy night is sure to bring, which, if you’re reading Billboard, you likely are, then we’ll be showing you how you can watch the award show live for free below. Keep reading to find out more.
How to Watch the 2026 Grammy Awards Online for Free
As mentioned, the award show will air live on Feb. 1 on CBS. The official streamer of the show is Paramount+, but there are other ways to watch, which we will go into below.
Paramount+
The event is officially available via Paramount+’s Premium plan which includes CBS. A no-ads plan will run you $13.99 a month. Once the show airs, Premium plan holders will also be able to watch on-demand. Paramount+ Essential subscribers will not have the option to stream live, but will have access on-demand the day after the special airs. An Essentials subscription will run you $8.99 a month.

The subscription not only gives you access to watch the Grammys live, you’ll also be able to tap into a vast library with up to 40,000+ ad-free episodes and movies, including music-themed hits such as Love & Hip Hop: Miami, School of Rock, Lolla: The Story of Lollapalooza and much more. Paramount+ Premium plan holders will also be able to stream the service on three devices at once, gain access to SHOWTIME® Originals, download movies and shows and Stream CBS live, with more sports and events.
DIRECTV
If you’re looking to watch the show live, we implore you to also consider DIRECTV. All of DIRECTV‘s packages include access to CBS, however we’d suggest the ENTERTAINMENT package. This package is currently available for $89.99 a month and is perfect for those looking to tap into a slew of entertainment-based channels. If you’re unsure about committing to a new subscription, you can simply try the service out for free for five days, which will give you plenty of time to watch the two-hour special before canceling your subscription.
Fubo
Another way to watch the award show on CBS is via Fubo, which has a weeklong free trial available here. Fubo’s package includes a free DVR so you record the broadcast to watch all the performances back on-demand. Continue with one of Fubo’s streaming deals or cancel before your free trial is up to avoid being charged. See details here.
Hulu + Live TV
Another option for our readers is a Hulu + Live TV subscription, given that CBS is included in the live TV channel lineup. The service’s live package includes major networks along with MTV, like ABC, NBC and more for all your live TV viewing needs. A subscription to the service (with ads) will cost $89.99 per month, while the plan without ads goes for $99.99 per month.
This subscription gives you access to the titles in Hulu’s library, along with live TV programs 24/7. This is one of the more pricey plans on our list, however the bundle is well worth the price. This is thanks to the added Hulu titles, which include music-themed shows and movies like American Idol, The Voice, The Masked Singer, The Beatles: 8 Days a Week, Amy Winehouse: A Final Goodbye, Billie, Madonna and the Breakfast Club, Bad Rap, 69: The Saga of Danny Hernandez and more.
