Annual Grammy Awards 2021: When and Where

  • Date & Time: Sunday, March 14, 2021, 8- 11:30 p.m. ET (5-8:30 p.m. PT)
  • Where: CBS. Broadcast to a limited audience from the Los Angeles Staples Center.

How to Watch the Grammy’s Abroad?

Delayed by COVID-19 and two years late, the Grammy Awards promise to be a big hit this year with director Trevor Noah, and a star cast of performers. These include Bad Bunny, Doja Cat, Billie Eilish, Roddy Rich, Harry Styles, Taylor Swift – and Beyoncé! No way you can miss this major event!

And yet, what if you’re destined to be on the go this year? Say, you’ve got a convention, funeral, wedding, whatever, in some foreign country that just unfortunately fell during this time. How are you going to watch the 2021 Grammys, incidentally, one of the four biggest major American entertainment awards?

No problem, sign up for a VPN, and you’ll be able to watch the 2021 Grammys online, anywhere, at any time.

A virtual private network (VPN)

A virtual private network (VPN) swaps your geography-based Internet Protocol (IP) address with another one from any country, city, or global Internet service provider (ISP). As an aside, a VPN, also, saves you from ad fraud, hackers, stalkers who dog your activities, and malicious actors who chase your private personal information. For businesses, VPNs could be a way to monitor and one-up your competition.

Returning to the Grammy Awards, if you happen to languish in a foreign country during the time of casting and really – just really – can’t miss the glamour and fuss, hope’s up your alley. Simply choose one of the following top VPN channels to livestream the show straight to your mobile device, so you don’t miss a jot.

How do you watch the Grammys from Europe – and anywhere for that matter – for cheap?

While not exactly free, you can use a VPN to watch the Grammys at a reasonable cost through the following leading American TV streaming services:

Fubo TV

Fubo TV gives you 45 different channels without cable that include heavy-hitters like ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC, ESPN.

Twitch

A subscription to Twitch helps you watch the Grammy magic with one of three options:
