Taylor Swift (USA) won Album of the Year for a fourth time at the 66th Grammy Awards, staged at the crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, California, USA, on 4 February 2024. The accolade, in recognition of her 12th studio album Midnights (2022), broke a four-way tie with Frank Sinatra (1960, 1966–67), Stevie Wonder (1974–75 and 1977) and Paul Simon (1971, 1976 and 1987), who have all won three Album of the Year Grammys.


Fourteen-time Grammy winner (2010–24) and 52-time nominee (2008–24) Swift had previously won Album of the Year for Fearless (2010), 1989 (2016) and folklore (2021). Swift’s 2024 award was presented by Celine Dion, making her first public appearance in some time after being diagnosed with a rare neurological disorder. Earlier in the evening, Swift used her acceptance speech after winning the award for Best Pop Vocal Album to announce a new album, The Tortured Poets Department, scheduled for release on 19 April 2024.

Șerban Ghenea (Canada, b. Romania) doubled the celebrations in the Album of the Year category, picking up his fifth trophy (2016–18, 2021 and 2024) as one of the engineers/mixers on Midnights. In doing so, he broke his own three-way tie – with mastering engineer Tom Coyne and engineer/mixer John Hanes – to become the category’s most decorated individual since Album of the Year was first presented, at the first-ever Grammy Awards, on 4 May 1959.
