Watch the Grammys on CBS

CBS is a local channel, so there’s lots of ways to watch it. You probably already have access if you have a cable TV plan or a live TV streaming subscription.

But if you’re looking for the cheapest way to get local channels without cable, consider getting an over-the-air (OTA) antenna. The best OTA antennas range from $25 to $70, and that’s a one-time payment—way better than shelling out $25 to $70 monthly for basic cable.

Pro tip: CBS’s channel number varies by city, even within the same state—it’s channel 2 in New York City, 4 in Buffalo, and 8 in Rochester. To find CBS’s channel number in your region, head over to our CBS guide.

Watch the Grammys on Paramount+

Are you a cord-cutter who wants to avoid traditional TV entirely? We’ve got you—the best (and cheapest) way to watch the Grammys without cable is Paramount+.

You can actually watch the Grammys for free if you sign up for Paramount+’s seven-day free trial. Just be sure to cancel by the end of the trial period if you don’t want to be charged.

Plan Price Live CBS? Details
Essential (with ads) $4.99/mo. No View plan
Premium (no ads) $9.99/mo. Yes View plan

Both the Essential and Premium plans will allow you to watch the Grammys on demand, but only the Premium plan offers access to the CBS live channel. It’s currently unclear whether Essential subscribers will be able to watch the Grammys live.
