Grammy Awards Day is celebrated every year, albeit on a different date. On this day, the Recording Academy shows appreciation for the artistic eminence across genres such as hip hop, pop, classical, and more, in the musical field. It is a perfect day to celebrate mankind’s universal language.

History of Grammy Awards Day

The origin of the Grammys dates back to the 1950s when the Hollywood Walk of Fame began. This public monument, which honors the achievements in the entertainment industry, renewed interest to honor the talents of music professionals.

Recording executives on the Hollywood Walk of Fame committee realized that leading artists in the music industry were not able to earn their mark on Hollywood Boulevard. Also, Academy Awards like the Oscars and the Emmys recognized the leading talents in film and television but there was no such platform for the music industry. This led to the creation of the Grammy Awards — the highest achievement in the music industry.

The decision to name the award ‘Grammy’ was based on a mail-in contest where approximately 300 participants suggested the name. The winner of the contest, Jay Danna from New Orleans, Louisiana submitted the name as an abbreviated reference to the gramophone.

The first ceremony was organized at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California, and the Park Sheraton Hotel in New York City, New York, on May 4, 1959. They presented 28 awards across different categories. Over the years, the number of accolades and categories fluctuated and during one year, the awards distributed reached over 100. The second ceremony was also organized in 1959 and was the first ceremony to be televised.

Before Staples Center in Los Angeles became the fixed location for the award ceremonies in 2000, the ceremony moved from Madison Square Garden’s Felt Forum, to Tennessee Theatre, to Radio City Music Hall, to Shrine Auditorium, and to Hollywood Palladium.
