Following the 2019 ceremony, the award for Children's Music of the Year was cut, with the IFPI citing low submissions to the category and the challenge of having an adult jury decide on an award for children. The decision received criticism and was reinstated for the 2021 ceremony. The 2021 ceremony was postponed from its usual February date to June due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Sweden.
Since the 1988 ceremony, the Grammis have been held at the beginning of the year to recognize music from the preceding year. With the exception of the 1970 ceremony held in Lidingö, every ceremony has taken place at venues in Stockholm.
Awards for classical music have been presented since the inaugural ceremony (with a gap in the 1990s), then referring to "serious music" (seriös musik). Classical of the Year (Årets klassiska) can be awarded to an ensemble or a soloist; it has previously been presented as two separate categories.
Awards for rock music on their own have been presented since the 1990 ceremony. Prior to this, awards in combined Pop/Rock categories have been presented, a practice which sometimes continued into the 1990s and 2000s. It was previously separated into group and solo artist (male and female) categories, but has been one gender-neutral award since 2012.
