Justin Bieber will perform at the Grammy Awards this weekend, the Recording Academy confirmed on Sunday, marking Bieber’s first time performing on Music’s Biggest Night since the 64th Grammys in 2022.
Bieber is up for four Grammys this year, including for album of the year for Swag, his first record since 2021’s Justice. He’s also up for best pop vocal performance, best pop vocal album and best R&B performance.
Public performances from Bieber have been rare in the past few years during the singer’s hiatus between Justice and Swag. He’s set to headline Coachella this April in what’s shaping up to be one of the biggest festivals Coachella has organized in years, with tickets quickly selling out when they were listed last fall.
Prior to the Bieber announcement, the Academy had confirmed that Sabrina Carpenter, Clipse and Pharrell Williams would perform during the ceremony as well, and there will also be a segment featuring all eight of this year’s best new artist nominees: Addison Rae, Alex Warren, KATSEYE, Leon Thomas, Lola Young, Olivia Dean, SOMBR and The Marías.
The Academy said there’d be more performance announced in the coming days.
The Grammy Awards are set to air live this Sunday on CBS and Paramount+ starting at 5 p.m. This will be the last year the ceremony airs on CBS, ending a decades-long partnership as the show will move to Disney next year. This is also Trevor Noah’s last time hosting the show, ending a six-year streak in which the comedian has served as MC.
