The Grammy Award for Best Boxed or Special Limited Edition Package has been presented since 1995 to a work's art directors, not to its performers. The award year reflects the year of presentation, not the year the work was actually released. The award category was previously known as Best Recording Package - Boxed (1995-1997) and Best Boxed Recording Package (1998-2002). In 2016, the award was expanded from 5 nominees to 6 nominees.
