Jem Aswad Executive Editor, Music The Recording Academy has released a revised 2025 Grammy Week event schedule, which focuses the organization’s efforts on “the events that can be most impactful” in the wake of the multiple devastating wildfires that continue to burn across Los Angeles.
As previously announced, the 67th annual Grammy Awards telecast on CBS will continue to be held on Feb. 2, but will have a “renewed sense of purpose: raising additional funds to support wildfire relief efforts and honoring the bravery and dedication of first responders who risk their lives to protect ours,” according to the announcement.
Since launching the Los Angeles Fire Relief Effort to Support Music Professionals last week, the Recording Academy and MusiCares have raised and pledged more than $2 million in emergency aid to music people affected by the wildfires.
