The 2026 Tony Awards will be hosted by singer-songwriter Pink, marking her debut as master of ceremonies for the prestigious event. The ceremony is scheduled for June 7 at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, a longtime venue for the awards.
Pink, a three-time Grammy winner known for her energetic and physically dynamic live performances, expressed enthusiasm about the opportunity. In a statement, she described hosting the Tonys as "the honor of an entire lifetime" and praised Broadway for shaping her own performances. She highlighted the theatrical community as one that is "supportive and inclusive," emphasizing the dedication and talent of those who work in the industry.
Although Pink has not previously appeared on Broadway, she has achieved significant success in the music industry with 15 Top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, including four number-one singles such as “Raise Your Glass” and “Just Give Me a Reason.” Her reputation for acrobatic stage shows aligns with the high-energy nature of the awards ceremony.
Tony Award executive producers Raj Kapoor, Sarah Levine Hall, and Jack Sussman praised Pink as "a fearless artist" whose strong voice, dynamic stage presence, and authenticity reflect the essence of live theater and performance. Their statement underlined her suitability to represent the spirit of the awards.
The 2026 Tony Awards will be broadcast live on CBS and streamed on Paramount+, continuing the tradition of making the ceremony accessible to a broad audience. The awards, which honor excellence in Broadway theater, are presented by the Broadway League and the American Theatre Wing.
