Clare Sanders Wright, Senior Music Manager at War Child, said of the event: “I am so excited to announce the lineup for BRITs Week 2024 and thankful to all of the brilliant artists donating their time to raise vital funds in aid of War Child. The past year is one that we will never, ever forget. Children have paid with their homes and their lives for wars they didn’t start.
“And then, there are the children who don’t make the headlines – children who might be completely forgotten. But there is hope. War Child help children put the pieces back together. The money raised from BRITs Week 2024 will help War Child keep children safe. Whether it’s mental health first aid, food, or shelter, War Child work in the hardest-to-reach places to ensure that children and their families have hope for a brighter future. We are so grateful to the artists and our partners for supporting BRITs Week 24. Thank you.”
Dr. Jo Twist OBE, BPI Chief Executive, added: “BRITs Week is an integral part of the excitement that surrounds The BRIT Awards with Mastercard, allowing more fans the chance to experience its celebration of great British music in all its rich diversity. Crucially, it raises vital funds to support the work of War Child on behalf of children experiencing conflict around the world – work which has never been more critical.
“This year we have another brilliant line up of must-see gigs, and the BPI thanks our partners AEG Presents, Bauer Media Audio UK and War Child, and, of course, the amazing artists and their record labels, whose passionate support makes it all possible.”
Back in December, The Last Dinner Party were announced as the winners of the prestigious BRITs Rising Star award supported by BBC Radio 1.
The band – comprised of Abigail Morris, Lizzie Mayland, Emily Roberts, Georgia Davies and Aurora Nishevci – were revealed as the winner of the award by Clara Amfo on her BBC Radio 1 Future Sounds show.
The Rising Star prize recognises British artists who had not achieved a top 20 album, or more than one top 20 single by October 31 of this year. It is voted by an industry-wide panel. Previous artists who have been crowned winners of the award include the likes of Adele and Sam Fender.
This year’s BRIT Awards ceremony is due to take place on March 2 at The O2 in London. It’ll mark the second consecutive year that the show has aired in a primetime Saturday night slot on ITV1 and ITVX.
