Harry Styles has been confirmed as one of the performers taking to the stage for the 2026 BRIT Awards.
This year’s ceremony will see the prestigious awards head to Manchester for the first time, and presented from the Co-op Live arena on Saturday February 28.
Jack Whitehall is returning to host for the sixth time, and Olivia Dean – who is up for four awards on the night – was recently named as the first act set to perform at the event.
Now, it has been revealed that Styles will also be taking to the stage, making his live TV performance debut for music from his new album ‘Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally’.
The slot comes three years after he last performed on the BRIT Awards’ stage. At that 2023 ceremony, he was also nominated for four trophies, all relating to his hit 2022 album, ‘Harry’s House’.

Styles announced details of his fourth solo album ‘Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally’ earlier this month, along with the lead single ‘Aperture’, which features Wolf Alice’s Ellie Rowsell and was inspired by LCD Soundsystem.
Since then, he has confirmed a huge, seven-city ‘Together, Together’ tour, which includes a 12-night residency at London’s Wembley Stadium and an impressive 30 dates at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
When tickets went live for UK dates yesterday (Tuesday January 27), there were queues of up to 250,000 people for each of the shows. It has also been revealed that Styles has broken several records at both Wembley and Madison Square Garden thanks to huge demand.
The Wembley gigs will see the ‘As It Was’ singer donate £1 from every ticket sold to LIVE’s levy, helping to protect UK grassroots music venues and support emerging talent.
