The 65th Annual Grammy Awards ceremony was held at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on February 5, 2023.[2] It recognized the best recordings, compositions, and artists of the eligibility year – October 1, 2021 to September 30, 2022 – as determined by the members of National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences. The nominations were announced on November 15, 2022.[3] South African comedian Trevor Noah, who hosted the 63rd and 64th ceremonies, returned again.[4][5]
A Special Merit Award, Best Song for Social Change, was added. The award will be determined by a Blue Ribbon Committee and is destined to reward songs that "contain lyrical content that addresses a timely social issue and promotes understanding, peacebuilding and empathy".
For Best Musical Theater Album, composers and lyricists of more than 50% of the score of a new recording became eligible for the award.
Best Spoken Word Album was renamed Best Audio Book, Narration & Storytelling Recording. Spoken word poetry is no longer eligible for this award and is now recognized with the Best Spoken Word Poetry Album category.
The first wave of performers for the ceremony were announced on January 25, 2023, with Harry Styles confirmed a few days later.[13][14] Performers for the In Memoriam segment were announced on February 1, 2023.[15] The 50 Years of Hip Hop performance was announced on February 3.[16]
