Grammys 2026 round up with full list of winners as Bad Bunny wins album of the year

The Grammys have returned with artists taking to the stage and wowing audience as several performers take home their first award and history is made as records are broken

The Grammys returned to Los Angeles Crypto.com Arena on Sunday, February 1 and some of the biggest celebrities in the world descended on Hollywood to battle it out.

Bad Bunny took home the top prize of Album of the Year – just one week before he performs at the Super Bowl half time show. He was among many artists who protested against US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) at the ceremony. Other major awards of the evening went to Olivia Dean for new artist, Billie Eilish and Finneas for song of the year and Kendrick Lamar with SZA for record of the year.

Trevor Noah hosted one of music’s biggest nights as huge names took to the stage, including Justin Bieber and Addison Rae as well as artists who paid tribute to Ozzy Osbourne, singer Roberta Flack, and multi-instrumentalist D’Angelo. Lamar left as the most decorated artists, bagging a total of 5 awards, making him the most-awarded hip-hop artist in Grammys history.
