Music’s biggest night is just around the corner. The 68th Grammy Awards are represented by the Recording Academy of the United States to honor the best performers, songs, and albums in music of that year.

Bruno Mars will once again take the stage at the award show. It is unclear if he will perform his new single, “I Just Might,” from his upcoming album, The Romantic, out February 27, or if he will perform “APT” with Rosé (who is also performing at the show) since the song is nominated for three Grammys. He last performed at the award show in 2025 to perform “California Dreamin'” with Lady Gaga, who is also a performer this year.

“Guess who? You asked, and we delivered. Bruno Mars is popping out at the 2026 GRAMMYS! You don’t wanna miss this,” the Instagram post was captioned on January 30.
