The Tony Awards are turning to Pink to host this year’s telecast, choosing a performer known for an energetic, physical live show to front Broadway’s biggest night.
The three-time Grammy Award winner will make her debut as emcee for the ceremony on 7 June, when the awards return to their longtime home at Radio City Music Hall.
Pink’s selection places her among a notable group of previous Tony hosts, including Ariana DeBose, Cynthia Erivo and Kevin Spacey. The move continues the awards’ recent pattern of enlisting entertainers with broad stage presence and wide audience recognition to guide the annual broadcast.
The announcement positions Pink for one of the most prominent hosting jobs in live entertainment. Best known for her powerful performances and athletic concert style, she brings a high-energy profile to an event that celebrates the year in Broadway.
The 2026 ceremony will mark Pink’s first time serving as host of the Tonys. The awards show is expected to use the familiar setting of Radio City Music Hall for another major Broadway showcase in early June.
For Pink, the role adds another milestone to a career that has already spanned music, live performance and major industry honors. For the Tonys, it signals a desire to pair the ceremony with a host whose stage persona can carry a large-scale televised event.
The Tony Awards will be held on 7 June at Radio City Music Hall.
Pink’s appointment as host makes her the latest major name to lead the show, following previous emcees Ariana DeBose, Cynthia Erivo and Kevin Spacey.
