\n\tThe BRIT Awards<\/a> will return to Manchester\u2019s Co-op Live in 2027, organizers confirmed on Tuesday (June 9; June 10 in England). The event will take place on Saturday, Feb. 27, with the ceremony once again broadcasting live on ITV1 and ITVX.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 2026 edition was also held at the Oak View Group-owned Co-op Live, marking the first time the BRIT Awards<\/a> had taken place outside of London in its nearly 50-year history. It had previously taken place at The O2 Arena (2012-2025), as well as various venues in the capital including Earl\u2019s Court (1996-2011) and Alexandra Palace (1993-1995).<\/p>\n

\n\tStacey Tang, co-president of RCA Records at Sony Music U.K., has been reappointed chair of the 2027 BRITs Committee and will oversee all aspects of the show, including its creative direction. Tang will lead a committee comprising representatives from major and independent record labels, BRITs TV and the BPI.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tTang, who featured on Billboard U.K.\u2019s 2026 Power Players list<\/a>, also led the committee for the 2026 ceremony. The BRITs\u2019 presence in Manchester featured activations across the city, as well as free-to-attend panels and workshops as part of the debut BRITs Fringe.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tThe news follows a successful BRIT Awards<\/a> earlier this year, which organizers say delivered the largest global audience in the event\u2019s history. The show featured performances from Harry Styles<\/a> and EJAE, AUDREY NUNA and REI AMI (the voices behind K-Pop Demon Hunters\u2019 HUNTR\/X<\/a>), alongside Mark Ronson,<\/a> Olivia Dean<\/a>, Rosal\u00eda<\/a>, RAYE<\/a> and Wolf Alice<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\tDean collected four awards on the night, including album of the year for her blockbuster second LP, The Art of Loving. Other big winners included Noel Gallagher<\/a>, who was named songwriter of the year, as well as Lola Young<\/a>, who took home the breakthrough artist prize.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s a real privilege to return as Chair and to be back in Manchester for a second year,\u201d said Tang in a statement. \u201cThere was such an incredible energy around the 2026 show \u2014 across the city, the industry and with fans everywhere. I\u2019m excited to build on that global success alongside a brilliant team, pushing the show creatively and continuing to celebrate the artists, the culture and the communities that make British music what it is.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBPI CEO Dr. Jo Twist OBE added: \u201cFollowing the record-breaking success of this year\u2019s show in Manchester, we can\u2019t wait to return to the Co-op Live to continue celebrating and championing music and creativity to a global audience, from a city with a great heritage that has truly welcomed and embraced us with open arms. We look forward to further developing our cultural impact across the U.K. and in Manchester itself around next year\u2019s show.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tManchester City Council leader Bev Craig said: \u201cThis year\u2019s BRIT Awards in Manchester were a huge success with a global reach and massive local impact, and we\u2019re excited and ready to help make 2027 the biggest year yet for The BRITs!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tContinued Craig: \u201cThe impact of the awards was felt across the city region, from the cash benefit for our economy, showcasing small local music venues, incredible opportunities for our up-and-coming young musicians and creatives, and engagement with Greater Manchester schools \u2014 and we\u2019ll be creating even more ways for them, for local people across GM and for visitors to get involved in next year\u2019s awards, which look set to be another incredible celebration of music and our city.\u201d<\/p>\n
