BTS, H.E.R., Haim, Jhene Aiko and More to Perform at Grammy Week Virtual Events

Needless to say, the 2021 Grammy Week will not be like ones we’ve known in the past. While it’s ordinarily a week of socializing, celebrating, parties, concerts and (most of all) networking, this year we’re going to have to do all of it from home, like we’ve had to do virtually everything else for the past year. Added to that, the Clive Davis Pre-Grammy Gala, penultimate event of Grammy Week since 1976, has been postponed until May, since Davis came down with Bell’s Palsy (from which he is expected to make a full recovery).

With those caveats, there’s still plenty of music, conversation and more happening in this virtual Grammy Week — for more info, links, RSVPs and whatnot, see https://www.grammy/events. The events below are free unless otherwise noted, but please note that RSVPs are often required.

The big show, of course, takes place on Sunday, March 14 at 8 p.m. ET/ 5 p.m . PT on and will air on CBS.
