Nominations for the 2023 BRIT Awards are to be announced via an exclusive live stream, broadcast on the official BRITs channels from 4pm GMT on January 12.
Presented by Vick Hope and Jack Saunders, Bring on The BRITs will be broadcast on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. The 30-minute show will include the full nominations list plus artist reactions and further information about the big ceremony.
The presenters will also be joined by a number of celebrities to announce this year’s key categories, including Tom Daley, YouTube’s Yung Filly, EURO 2022 winner Jill Scott and Gogglebox’s Joe and George Baggs. The celebrities are currently in possession of locked BRITs boxes which they will open on their social channels to reveal their categories.
“We’ve had a year of brilliant music and so I’m unbelievably excited to be revealing the nominees for The 2023 BRIT Awards,” Vick Hope said.
“It’s a chance for us to show love to some of our favourite established artists as well as celebrate some of the best breakthrough artists of the year… and I’m definitely planning on bringing the party vibes to the show!”

The girl group beat off competition from Cat Burns and Nia Archives to claim the prize, which has previously been won by Adele, Celeste, Florence & The Machine, Sam Fender, Ellie Goulding, Griff and last year’s winner Holly Humberstone.
