How to watch The BRIT Awards 2024 free from anywhere in the world

Brit Awards 2024.

The BRIT Awards are set to take place this weekend on March 2nd, here's everything you need to know about the upcoming music awards ceremony.

When it comes to celebrating the best of British music, every year the BRIT awards become a who's who of incredible talent from across the globe. The awards ceremony this year is set to take place this Saturday, March 2nd, 2024 and is set to attended by a whole host of famous faces with performances from artists including Dua Lipa, Kylie Minogue, Calvin Harris with Ellie Goulding, and Raye. But how can you watch the BRIT Awards for free from anywhere in the world? Here's what you need to know...

How to watch the BRIT Awards in the UK

In the UK, the BRIT Awards ceremony will air on ITV and ITVX from 8.30pm until 10.50pm. Viewers will be able to tune into the show at 8.30pm on TV or ITVX for free - so long as they make an account with the platform. 

How to watch the BRIT Awards from anywhere

ITVX, the platform used to stream The BRITS in the UK is geo-locked so that only viewers in the UK can stream the show. However, if you're outside of the UK for work or a holiday, there's still a way you can stream the show as if you're in the UK, by using a VPN.

VPNs (virtual private networks) are a popular way to access TV shows only available in other countries. A VPN is an easy-to-use piece of software that lets you change your device's IP address so it looks like you’re in the UK. This means you can use any UK streaming service such as ITVX as if you're in the country.

If you're already confused, don't fret! Our sister site, TechRadar, has put every major VPN service to the test to save you the hassle of sifting through the web yourself. 

They've rated ExpressVPN as the best because, "It’s compatible with all of your devices, supports most streaming services, and ranks among the fastest. You can even install it on devices like an Amazon Fire TV Stick, Apple TV, Xbox, and PlayStation. So for a one-stop-shop, you can’t go wrong with Express."
