BRIT Awards 2024
The much-anticipated 2024 Brit Awards, the 44th edition of the prestigious ceremony hosted by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), will take place on Saturday, March 2, 2024 at the O2 Arena in London, capturing the attention of the audience.
The 2023 ceremony will be held on a weekend for the first time, and the 2024 ceremony aims to build on that success and further boost ratings. Notably, the hosting duties will be handed over to a new host, as Mo Gilligan, who hosted the ceremony for the past two years, has announced his decision not to host this time.
In a groundbreaking achievement, Rae is the frontrunner for the 2024 Brit Awards with a record seven nominations, making her the artist with the most nominations in a single year. She is followed by British rappers Central Cee and J Hus, who are tied for second with four nominations each. As anticipation for the event grows, these nominations set the stage for an exciting and competitive celebration of musical excellence at the heart of the British music industry.

What the 2024 Brit Awards mean
The 2024 BRIT Awards marks significant changes and milestones, reflecting a commitment to diversity and inclusion. The decision to increase the number of nominees for Artist of the Year and International Artist of the Year from five to ten is a noteworthy step towards greater representation in the music industry.
55% of nominees for the 2024 Brit Awards are women, either as solo artists or members of all-girl groups, while this rises to 57% when mixed-gender groups are taken into account, highlighting the push for gender inclusion and recognition.
The ceremony celebrates the rich diversity of British music styles by introducing a new genre award, R&B Act, in addition to the existing categories of Alternative/Rock Act, Dance Act, Pop Act and Hip-Hop/Grime/Rap Act. This move recognises and appreciates the diversity and creativity of the UK music scene.
Raye’s record seven nominations, coupled with strong performances from UK rappers Central Cee and J Hus, further highlight the wealth of talent on hand, making the 2024 BRIT Awards a platform to recognise and celebrate contributions to the music industry’s diverse and dynamic landscape.
How are the 2024 Brit Awards winners chosen?
The winners of the 2024 BRIT Awards genre awards will be chosen through a public vote conducted exclusively on Instagram. The voting period will open at 12pm on Thursday 1 February and close at 6pm on Thursday 15 February.
Fans can visit the BRITs page (@BRITs) on Instagram to vote. They have two options: either comment on a Reel in their favorite category using an artist-specific hashtag, or create their own Reel, including the @BRITs hashtag and an artist-specific hashtag in the caption.
This interactive and inclusive approach allows fans to play a key role in deciding the winners of the genre awards, adding an exciting fan engagement element to the event. Further details about the voting process will be announced soon, ensuring transparency and accessibility for fans keen to contribute to selecting their favourite artists for the 2024 BRIT Awards.
2024 Brit Awards Organisers
The 2024 Brit Awards will be hosted by a trio of experienced presenters who have moved up from red carpet coverage to the main stage. The three presenters are Clara Amfo, Maya Jama and Roman Kemp, all well-known names in the entertainment industry.
Having demonstrated their expertise navigating the glamorous red carpet last year, Clara, Maya and Roman have been promoted to the vital role of guiding viewers throughout the ceremony.
Clara Amfo, best known for her work as a presenter on BBC Radio 1, Maya Jama, a well-known figure in the world of broadcasting and presenting, and Roman Kemp, renowned for his work in radio and television, bring together a wealth of experience and charisma. These three dynamic presenters will not only showcase their hosting talents, but will also inject energy and enthusiasm into the 2024 BRIT Awards, ensuring an engaging and memorable experience for both the live audience and those watching at home.

Excitement reached new heights when Kylie Minogue was announced as the 2024 Global Icon Award winner and confirmed as a performer, expressing her excitement to join such a prestigious list of artists and highlighting the special place the BRIT Awards holds in her heart.
