2026 is undoubtedly the year of Harry Styles. Over the past two weeks, he’s announced a new album, released ‘Aperture’, the first song from this era, AND a huge 50+ date global residency. Now, it’s been confirmed that he will perform at The BRIT Awards 2026 with Mastercard!
The international superstar will take to the stage at this year’s award ceremony, making his live TV performance debut of music from his new album Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally. This year’s ceremony takes place on February 28 and will be hosted in Manchester’s Co-op Live, the first time the awards have ever been held outside of London.
Harry’s return to the BRITs comes three years since his last performance at the ceremony. Alongside a show-stopping performance, Harry swept the board with four award wins following the release of his last album Harry’s House.
His performance precedes the release of Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally, out on March 6. This will be followed by the seven city residency Together, Together, which will take place across Amsterdam, London, São Paulo, Mexico City, New York, Melbourne, and Sydney. Just today, more dates were added to the London leg, making it a record-breaking 12-night run at Wembley Stadium.
Hosted by comedian and writer Jack Whitehall, winners of the BRIT Awards will each take home the iconic BRITs trophy. This year, the trophy has been conceptualised and designed by internationally acclaimed and Manchester-born designer Matthew Williamson, inspired by his roots to the city.
