The ceremony this year will be held at the Co-op Live on Saturday February 28, marking the first time that the event has taken place in Manchester in its nearly 50 year history.

Olivia Dean – who is up for multiple awards on the night – was confirmed earlier this month as the first performer, and yesterday (Wednesday January 28) Harry Styles was also announced. For the soloist and former One Direction star, the slot comes three years after he last performed on the BRITs stage, and on the heels of him announcing new album ‘Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally’ with the lead single ‘Aperture’.

Now, organisers have confirmed that Wolf Alice will also be performing on the night. The London band are nominated for three awards this year: Group of the Year, Alternative/Rock Act and Mastercard Album of the Year for their chart-topping fourth album ‘The Clearing’.

The slot also comes following them performing an unforgettable set at Glastonbury last summer, and announcing a huge outdoor show at London’s Finsbury Park, where they will be joined by The Last Dinner Party, Lykke Li, Rachel Chinouriri, Keo, and Florence Road.

“We’re truly honoured to get the opportunity to play this year’s BRIT Awards,” said bassist ​​Theo Ellis. “Can’t wait to see what everyone’s wearing, can’t wait to see who else is playing, can’t wait to have 10 mini wines (after we play). Most of all can’t wait for a big night out in Manny. Make sure to tune in and watch it all live on the telly.”
