Interim Recording Academy Chief Harvey Mason Jr. revealed provided some insight into what the Grammys may look like next year. During an interview, Mason Jr. told Variety that the academy is developing three options for the upcoming year’s award show.
“We are simultaneously developing three plans for what the show would look like: One is the traditional show the with the full crowd, two is a limited crowd, and three is no crowd, and there’s creative around all three of those ideas: how and where we would film it,” he said.
While there’s conversations being had as to how the award show will take place, there’s no doubt as to when it will take place. Mason Jr. is holding on to the show’s January 31st date no matter what happens.
“But none of them involve changing or postponing the date,” he said.
California’s other big award show, the Academy Awards, is looking to possibly move dates. The closing of movie theaters has thrown off the release schedule for many of the year’s biggest films. The Academy’s Board of Governors will meet Thursday to discuss when and how the show will move forward in 2021.
