Brits 2022 live: Adele wins Album of the Year as Dave closes Brit Awards with phenomenal performance

ITV
Adele wins Album of the Year at the Brit Awards

The annual Brit Awards ceremony is underway tonight (Tuesday 8 February) at its usual spot at the O2 Arena in London.

Some of the biggest names in music are in attendance, including Ed Sheeran and Adele, as prizes are handed out and some of the nominees perform their songs live.

Mo Gilligan is hosting this year’s Brits, taking over from Jack Whitehall’s four consecutive years as host.

There was drama early on in the night, as pop singer Anne-Marie took a tumble during the first moments of her performance.

Winners include Adele for Song of the Year (for “Easy on Me”), Little Simz (Best New Artist), and Sam Fender for Best Rock Act.

Fans who aren’t able to watch the event from the O2 Arena itself – including international viewers – will be able to tune in via a number of different platforms, including ITV, YouTube and social media.

As with each year, there are a number of big performances lined up for the evening. Confirmed to perform at the O2 Arena are Adele, Anne-Marie with KSI and Digital Farm Animals, Ed Sheeran, Dave, Little Simz, Holly Humberstone, Liam Gallagher and Sam Fender.
