\n\tBruno Mars<\/a> is the final performer announced for the 2026 Grammy Awards<\/a>, to be held on Feb. 1 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. Mars\u2019 long-awaited fourth studio album, The Romantic, is due on Feb. 27.<\/p>\n

\n\tMars and ROS\u00c9 (who was announced as a performer Thursday) are nominated for three Grammys<\/a> at this year\u2019s event for their smash collab, \u201cAPT.\u201d: record of the year, song of the year and best pop duo\/group performance.<\/p>\n

\n\tA win in any of these categories would allow Mars to set or match an all-time Grammy record. If \u201cAPT.\u201d wins record of the year, Mars will become the first four-time winner in the history of the category. He is currently tied with Paul Simon with three wins each. Mars\u2019 previous wins in the category are as a featured artist on Mark Ronson\u2019s \u201cUptown Funk,\u201d for his solo smash \u201c24K Magic\u201d and for \u201cLeave the Door Open,\u201d his collab with Anderson .Paak as Silk Sonic.<\/p>\n

\n\tIf \u201cAPT.\u201d wins song of the year, Mars and his frequent collaborator Christopher Brody Brown will become the first three-time winners in the history of the category. They are currently tied for the lead with fellow two-time winners Henry Mancini and Johnny Mercer, James Horner, Will Jennings, U2, Adele, D\u2019Mile, and Billie Eilish and Finneas O\u2019Connell. Mars\u2019 and Brown\u2019s previous wins in the category are for \u201cThat\u2019s What I Like\u201d and \u201cLeave the Door Open.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIf the song wins best pop duo\/group performance, Mars will tie Lady Gaga for the most wins in the history of the category. He previously won for \u201cUptown Funk\u201d and \u201cDie With a Smile,\u201d a collab with Gaga which won last year. Mars would also become the first artist to win in this category in back-to-back years.<\/p>\n

\n\tA 16-time Grammy-winner, Mars has been a frequent performer on the Grammy stage. He made his performance debut on Music\u2019s Biggest Night in 2011, when he teamed with B.o.B on its Billboard Hot 100<\/a>-topping smash \u201cNothin\u2019 on You\u201d and then performed his own Hot 100-topping smash \u201cGrenade.\u201d On last year\u2019s telecast, he teamed with Gaga on The Mamas & The Papas\u2019 \u201cCalifornia Dreamin\u2019\u201d as a tribute to those affected by Los Angeles area wildfires. They had been booked to perform their smash \u201cDie With a Smile,\u201d but they pivoted to this song instead to address the moment.<\/p>\n

\n\tPreviously announced performers for the 2026 Grammys are Addison Rae, Alex Warren, Andrew Watt, Brandy Clark, Chad Smith, Clipse, Duff McKagan, Justin Bieber, KATSEYE, Lady Gaga, Leon Thomas, Lola Young, Lukas Nelson, Ms. Lauryn Hill, Olivia Dean, Pharrell Williams, Post Malone, Reba McEntire, ROS\u00c9, Sabrina Carpenter, Slash, sombr, The Mar\u00edas and Tyler, The Creator.<\/p>\n

\n\tComedian Trevor Noah<\/a> will host the 68th annual Grammy Awards for the sixth and final time. He will also executive produce the telecast with returning executive producers Ben Winston, Raj Kapoor and Jesse Collins.<\/p>\n
