The BRIT Awards 2022 will take place at London’s O2 Arena on 2/8 with Polydor co-President Tom March named Chair of the BRITs Committee for UMG U.K.’s third year at the helm.
March will be in charge of the creative direction of the show next year, stepping into the role filled by UMG U.K.’s EVP Selina Webb and EMI President Rebecca Allen for this year’s ceremony.
The 2022 show will continue to build on the 2021 ethos of putting on a show that places artists front and center while celebrating British and international artists and their achievements over the past year. Organizers promise “an even more innovative and interactive show than ever before.”
This year’s ceremony, which took place on 5/11, heralded the return to live music in the U.K. following the COVID-19 pandemic and included winner and performance moments from global superstars including Taylor Swift, Elton John, The Weeknd, Coldplay and Dua Lipa.
Once again, 2022’s event will be broadcast exclusively on ITV and the long-standing partnership with Mastercard will continue. Further campaign announcements will be made in the coming months.
