Grammy nominations voting starts today! Here are the key dates and current odds in the big four categories
Grammy nominations voting commenced today, October 4, and continues until October 15, so eligible members of the Recording Academy have 11 days to make their choices. The resulting Grammy noms will be announced on November 8. Voting for winners follows from December 12, 2024, to January 3, 2025 — happy holidays! — and then the 67th Annual Grammy Awards telecast is scheduled for February 2, 2025.
But eligible voters can’t select nominees in all Grammy categories. They can vote in up to 10 races across three genre fields, though the entire membership can also chime in on Album of the Year; Record of the Year; Song of the Year; Best New Artist; Producer of the Year, Non-Classical; and Songwriter of the Year, Non-Classical. This is to ensure that members only vote for the awards where they have the greatest experience and expertise.
