Justin Bieber will perform at the 2026 Grammy Awards on Sunday, February 1st, marking his first appearance on the show’s stage in four years. The singer is returning to the spotlight with a performance at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, where he is also nominated for four awards, including the prestigious Album of the Year for his 2025 release, Swag.
Throughout his long-running career, Bieber has won two Grammy Awards from a total of 27 nominations. This year’s event, hosted by Trevor Noah, signals a major comeback for the artist, who has taken a step back from touring and performing in recent years due to health challenges.
Justin Bieber’s Grammy Awards History and Nominations
Justin Bieber’s relationship with the Grammy Awards began in 2010. He earned his first nominations at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards in 2011, where he was up for Best New Artist and Best Pop Vocal Album for My World 2.0.
His first Grammy win came five years later. In 2016, he won the Grammy for Best Dance Recording for the hit song “Where Are ร Now,” a collaboration with Jack ร (Diplo and Skrillex). His second Grammy victory was in 2021, when the song “10,000 Hours” with Dan + Shay won for Best Country Duo/Group Performance.
Over the years, Bieber has accumulated a significant number of nominations. Some of the major categories he has been nominated in include:
- Album of the Year (for Purpose in 2017, Justice in 2022, and Swag in 2026)
- Record of the Year (for “Despacito (Remix)” in 2018 and “Peaches” in 2022)
- Song of the Year (for “Love Yourself” in 2017, “Despacito (Remix)” in 2018, and “Peaches” in 2022)
For the 2026 ceremony, his album Swag is nominated for Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album. The single “Daisies” is up for Best Pop Solo Performance, and “Yukon” is nominated for Best R&B Performance.
Details on the 2026 Grammy Performance and Comeback
The announcement of Bieber’s 2026 Grammy performance is notable because of his extended break from the stage. His last Grammy performance was at the 2022 ceremony, where he performed his nominated song “Peaches” with Daniel Caesar and Giveon.
Following that performance, Bieber faced significant health issues. In 2022, he revealed a diagnosis of Ramsay Hunt syndrome, a condition that caused partial facial paralysis and severely impacted his ability to perform. This led to the postponement and eventual cancellation of the remaining dates on his global Justice World Tour.
“I performed six live shows, but it took a real toll on me. So I’m going to take a break from touring for the time being. I’m going to be OK,” Bieber said at the time.
His return to the Grammy stage is seen as a carefully planned step back into live performances. The event precedes another major scheduled appearance: Bieber is set to headline the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in April 2026, which will be his first-ever performance at the iconic festival.
