The nominations for this year’s UK-based annual popular music awards have been announced, ahead of the ceremony on 2nd March.

Representing some of the best in popular music in the UK, the nominees for the BRIT Awards 2024 were recently announced in a 30-minute livestream on Facebook and Instagram. This year’s awards features more nominations and a new category.

RAYE received the most nominations in a single BRITs year, with a total of seven nominations across six categories: Artist of the Year, Mastercard Album of the Year, Best New Artist, Pop Act, R&B Act, and Song of the Year with Mastercard x2. Keep scrolling for the full list of nominations.

Winners of the genre awards will take place via a public vote exclusive through Instagram, from 1st February to 15th February. The winners will be announced on 2nd March at The O2 arena and broadcast live on ITV1 and ITVX. Dua Lipa is the first artist confirmed to perform at this year’s event.

This year’s BRIT nominees really highlight the incredible breadth and diversity within British music. From breaking artists to returning greats, and with artists spanning so many genres, this year’s shortlist really feels like it has it all. I’d like to congratulate RAYE on her record-breaking seven nominations, as well as every other artist up for an award – I hope to see you all on the night!

Damian Christian, Managing Director and President of Promotions, Atlantic Records (part of Warner Music UK) & Chair of the BRIT Committee for 2024

We congratulate all the nominees on their deserved recognition of a brilliant year in music, and in particular RAYE on her exceptional achievement of a record seven nominations, underlining a truly outstanding 12 months for her. It’s also wonderful that women overall have performed so strongly across so many of the awards categories. We shared in last year’s disappointment that women were not represented in the British Artist of the Year nominations, and it’s heartening to see such a strong showing in the BRITs 2024 nominations. With such an exciting new generation of diverse talent coming through, we hope and will continue to work towards more balanced representation increasingly becoming the norm rather than the exception.
