The Recording Academy, the world’s leading society of music professionals, has announced plans to open GRAMMY House Giza in Egypt in October 2026, marking the first time the event will be hosted outside the United States. Located near the Great Pyramids of Giza, the GRAMMY House Giza will bring together artists, producers, songwriters, and industry leaders from around the world for several days of immersive programming featuring live performances, cultural exchanges, creative collaborations, and thought-provoking discussions.

The event aims to spotlight local and regional talent while giving artists from around the world a platform to collaborate and perform in one of the most iconic cultural locations in history.
