When are the Brit Awards 2024 and who is nominated?

The Brit Awards will return this year with three new hosts at the helm.

Mo Gilligan has stepped down after two years as presenter, and will be replaced by Love Island host Maya Jama, Roman Kemp and Clara Amfo.

Celebrating the best in the music industry, the 2024 Brits promise to be another star-studded affair. Here is everything you need to know about the ceremony.

When are the 2024 Brit Awards?

The 2024 Brit Awards will happen on Saturday, 2 March. The event will be streamed live from the O2 Arena in London on ITV1 and ITVX.

With the likes of Harry Styles winning big at the 2023 edition of the event, this year's awards ceremony proved to be a huge success for ITV – drawing in 4 million viewers in total.

The ceremony previously took place on a weekday but things changed this year when it took place on a Saturday, and thanks to its success with viewers the awards has been given a primetime spot on TV.

Damian Christian, the chair of the Brit committee, said: “A Saturday night show helped us lock in our most engaged audience ever, and we’ll be looking to build on that base as we connect with even more fans in 2024.”

Who is hosting the 2024 Brits?

Love Island host Maya Jama will host The Brit Awards 2024, taking over the job from 2023's compere Mo Gilligan. She'll be joined by fellow presenters Roman Kemp and Clara Amfo.

Comedian and The Masked Singer judge Gilligan stepped down as Brits host after two years because the 2024 event clashes with his first world tour.

Gilligan took over from fellow comedian Jack Whitehall. Other popular recent hosts have included Ant and Dec, and James Corden.

Who will be performing at the 2024 Brits?

Dua Lipa will be performing at the 2024 Brits alongside Raye and Kyle Minogue. The latter will also receive the prestigious Brits Global Icon Award, recognising and celebrating her five-decade-long career in the music industry.

"I am beyond thrilled to be honoured with the global icon award and to be joining a roll call of such incredible artists," said Kylie.

"The UK has always been a home from home so the Brits have a very special place in my heart. I have some amazing memories from the awards over the years and I can't wait to be back on the Brits stage."

Previous recipients of the Brits Global Icon Award include Taylor Swift, Sir Elton John and David Bowie.

Who is nominated at the 2024 Brits?

Nominations for the 2024 Brits awards were unveiled in January. RAYE was the biggest nominee of the night, receiving nods in categories like Artist of the Year, Song of the Year and Album of the Year — this made her the most nominated artist in a single year.

Other artists up for Artist of the Year include Dua Lipa, Arlo Parks, Dave and Fred Again, while Album of the Year nominees include Blur, J Hus, Little Simz and Young Fathers.

The likes of Taylor Swift, Kylie Minogue, Miley Cyrus and Olivia Rodrigo are in the running for the International Artist of the Year prize.

The Last Dinner Party have already been announced as winners of the Brit Rising Star Award, previously won by the likes of Adele, Sam Smith, Ellie Goulding and Sam Fender.

The 2021 Brits saw the Best Male and Best Female shortlists be scrapped in favour of a general winners list in order to have a more inclusive ceremony that could also cater to non-binary musicians. However in 2023 this led to a male-dominated winners list.

During the 2023 edition Styles was the big winner of the night, taking home four prizes including the Artist of the Year award. Elsewhere, Beyoncé won two awards, as did Wet Leg.
