Sam Fender And Lola Young Join Performer Line-Up For BRIT Awards

Two more acts will perform at this year's BRIT Awards.

North Shields artist Sam Fender and rising South London singer-songwriter Lola Young are the final acts confirmed, completing the line-up for the 2025 ceremony at London's O2 arena on March 1. Fender, who is nominated for Artist Of The Year and Alternative/Rock Act, said:

"Me and the band are so excited to perform at The BRIT Awards this year - we can’t wait to get up on that stage again!"

"I am super excited and grateful to be performing at The BRIT Awards this year," Young commented. "It's a dream come true and an absolute honour to share this moment alongside so many incredible artists. To be nominated is a huge achievement for me and I’m so thankful for all the support I’ve received."

They join previously announced performers JADE, Myles Smith, Shaboozey, Teddy Swims, The Last Dinner Party, and Sabrina Carpenter, who was recently announced as the recipient of the Global Success award. Back in December, Smith was announced as the winner of the Rising Star award. 

Jack Whitehall will return to present the awards ceremony, and the show will be broadcast live on ITV1 and streaming service ITVX. Head here for more details and a full list of nominees.
