Last year, it was Adele who stole the show, taking home three coveted awards for Best Song, Best British Artist, and Best British Album for 30. On top of that, there were plenty of powerhouse performances, with Ed Sheeran, Dave and Little Simz just being a few of the names to take the stage.

But what’s in store for the 2023 Brit Awards? Well, a whole lot of Harry Styles, of course. Aside from Harry, here’s everything you need to know about the Brits.
