The Brit Awards 2025: how to watch, who is hosting and what time is it on?

Awards season is in full swing and while most of the action has taken place in the US (think: the Critics Choice Awards, the SAG Awards and the Grammys), there are some calendar moments here in the UK. Take the BAFTAs from last week, for example, or the upcoming BRIT Awards 2025.

While we always look forward to The BRIT Awards, this year is particularly exciting as so many of the nominations are being led by women (more on that in a minute). From Charli XCX to Dua Lipa, we can expect to see women come out on top when the winners are announced.

So, when will that be? Here's everything you need to know about The BRIT Awards 2025, including when it's on, who is hosting and who is performing.

The BRIT Awards 2025 takes place on Saturday 1st March at the o2 Arena in London.

The BRIT Awards 2025 is on from 9pm to 11pm, with red carpet live streams starting online at 5:30pm.

If you're tuning in via television from the UK, ITV will be covering the star-studded ceremony, with live coverage starting at 8:15pm on ITV1 and ITVX (as well as on STV and STV Player in Scotland). For those outside the UK, the show is available to watch internationally on the BRITs YouTube channel.

Comedian and TV personality Jack Whitehall will return to host The BRIT Awards for the fifth time.

As mentioned, The BRIT Awards 2025 will be big for women — which we love to see, especially following last year's ceremony that saw RAYE take home a whopping six awards. Here's a run-through of all The BRIT Awards 2025 nominees (and winners so far)...
