From the nominations to the artists hitting the stage, here's everything we know about tonights show!
Who's hosting the Brits 2022?
Comedian Mo Gilligan will be hosting the show this year after long-running host Jack Whitehall stepped down from the roll last year.
Clara Amfo and Maya Jama will be taking on presenting duties for The BRITs Are Coming nominations show + The BRITs 2022 red carpet on the night.
Excited to be returning to the BRITs, host Jama added: "I am so excited to be back on presenting duties for the BRITs 2022! It’s such a big celebration, everyone is on top form and I love seeing so many of my favourite people within the music industry come together for such an incredible night".
Nella Rose and Munya Chawawa will be co-hosting the livestream red carpet show.
Where can I watch the BRITs?
The 2022 Brit Awards will be available to watch live on ITV and ITV Hub from 8pm tonight.
Who is performing at this year's show?
Performing at this year's show is Dave, Little Simz, Adele, Anne-Marie & KSI, Ed Sheeran, Holly Humberstone, Liam Gallagher and Sam Fender.
Doja Cat was originally lined-up to perform at this year's show but had to pull out due after her and her crew tested positive for Covid. In her statement, which she shared with her fans on Twitter she said:
"Unfortunately, due to cases of Covid within my crew, I will no longer be performing at the Brits. My team and I have been in rehearsals for weeks and despite taking the utmost caution, numerous members of my crew (both on and off stage) have tested postive for Covid. It’s simply not safe for us to continue to rehearse together and put each other in harm’s way. I can’t wait to perform for my UK fans as soon as I can. Take care of yourselves".
