Which annual music event featured Taylor Swift performing “august” in 2021?

The Grammy Awards featured Taylor Swift performing “august” in 2021.

Swift performed the song at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards, alongside “Cardigan” and “Willow.” Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner accompanied her, creating a live presentation centered on the Folklore and Evermore era.

The performance began with “Cardigan,” continued with “august,” and ended with “Willow.” It was staged in and around a cottage, matching the rustic visual language associated with Folklore.

This question is distinct from asking when the song was first performed live: the important fact here is the name of the awards event. The Grammys performance helped introduce the song’s atmospheric arrangement to a large international television audience.
