Mark Your Calendars On Us: After Being Pushed Back, Here Is Thee Grammys 2022 Rescheduled Date & Venue Set For... April 3rd In Las Vegas! The annual awards ceremony, which had been postponed from its January 31 date because of thee omicron.  The award show is moving to Las Vegas on April 3, marking the first time the telecast has been held anywhere but L.A. or New York since 1973. Of course of hunky dory, genius host with the most, Trevor Noah!

Read thee very intriguing and aha official deets released via Billboard right below:

"Located on the Las Vegas Strip inside the MGM Grand hotel and casino, the MGM Grand Garden Arena has operated as a 50-50 joint venture between AEG and MGM Resorts International since 2016. AEG also owns Crypto.com Arena, which has hosted the Grammys 19 times in the last 22 years.

In terms of hosting the 2022 Grammys, the MGM Grand Garden Arena met two essential requirements – it’s available in April and at 17,000 seats it has a large enough seating capacity to host the event. There is, however, one serious disadvantage — unlike Crypto.com Arena, it doesn’t have luxury suites.

That means a major financial concession for Recording Academy, which earns approximately $5 million each year leasing Crypto.com Arena’s 172 suites for “music’s biggest night,” sources tell Billboard. That additional revenue is likely even more important this year, following a scaled-down, no-audience ceremony at the LA Convention Center in March 2021.

Moving the Grammys to the spring left the Recording Academy with few good venue options. A springtime ceremony eliminates Crypto.com Arena and nearly every major professional sports arena in the country. Both the NHL and the NBA require every team in their respective leagues to hold all of April, May and most of June for playoff games and championships. There are exceptions for teams with no chance of making the postseason, but since opening in 1999, at least one of Crypto.com Arena’s three tenant teams has always made the playoffs. MGM Grand Garden Arena has no sports tenants. Since the first live telecast in 1971, the Grammys have been held in Los Angeles 39 times, in New York 11 times and in Nashville once (in 1973). Assuming the Academy Awards air as scheduled on March 27, this will be the first time that the Oscars will air before the Grammys since 1965. The Oscars were held on April 5 that year, eight days before the Grammys."
