Rosalía is heading to the BRIT Awards stage for the first time. The Spanish superstar has been announced as a performer at upcoming ceremony held Feb. 28, marking her debut appearance at the BRITs.
The show will take place at Manchester’s Co-op Live and marks the first time it will take place outside of London in its near 50-year history.
The news arrives as Rosalía is also nominated for the first time in the international artist of the year category, facing off against Bad Bunny, CMAT, Doechii, Lady Gag, Sabrina Carpenter, sombr, Taylor Swift, Chappell Roan and Tyler, The Creator. Her 2025 album, Lux, landed at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 upon release and No. 4 on the Official U.K. Albums Chart, making her the highest charting Spanish female act in the chart’s history.
Lux featured the pop star singing in 13 different languages, and was met with unanimous critical acclaim, including a Billboard cover story. Rosalía is gearing up for her biggest headline run yet with the Lux Tour, a global trek hitting arenas across Europe, North America, South America through September 2026 and spanning 42 shows across 17 countries.
She joins a BRITs 2026 performers lineup that already includes Harry Styles, Olivia Dean, Mark Ronson and Wolf Alice, with additional acts still to be confirmed.
Noel Gallagher was announced as the recipient of the Songwriter of the Year award on Wednesday (Feb. 4), while Ronson will receive the Outstanding Contribution to Music award.
Nominations for the BRIT Awards were announced Jan. 21, with Olivia Dean and Lola Young leading the pack with five nominations each, and Sam Fender with four.
