Last weekend was a big weekend for television with the Super Bowl and this weekend marks yet another one. This Sunday, James Corden will host the 2017 Grammys live from Los Angeles.

The show will feature performances from a variety of artists and likely include some solid comedy from Corden. But how do you stream it on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac? Read on to find out…

How to stream The Grammys on iOS, iPhone, Mac and Apple TV

Streaming options are somewhat limited this year, but there are few things worth noting. Much like the Super Bowl, CBS holds all of the rights to The Grammys and is therefore making it rather difficult to stream…

If you don’t want to use CBS All Access, there aren’t many other streaming options. One possibility is to pick up an over-the-air antenna on Amazon. If you’re a cord cutter, this is a good investment anyway to make it easier to watch things like sporting events and award shows.

As for what’s in store for The Grammys this year, James Corden takes the hosting reigns from LL Cool J. Corden has ties to Apple, appearing in an Apple Music advertisement and creating the Carpool Karaoke series that Apple is now spinning off. We can also expect special tributes to Prince and George Michael, as well as performances from:
