Rolling Stone UK cover stars Wolf Alice have been announced as the latest performer for next month’s 2026 BRIT Awards.

The band, who released new album The Clearing last summer, will join Harry Styles and Olivia Dean as performers at next month’s 2026 BRITs, the first of two years in a row to be held at Manchester’s Co-op Live.

“We’re truly honoured to get the opportunity to play this year’s BRIT Awards!” the band’s bassist Theo Ellis said.

“Can’t wait to see what everyone’s wearing, can’t wait to see who else is playing, can’t wait to have ten mini wines (after we play). Most of all can’t wait for a big night out in Manny. Make sure to tune in and watch it all live on the telly.”

Wolf Alice are up for three BRIT Awards this year – Album of the Year for The Clearing, Group of the Year and Alt/Rock Act – as revealed in the full list of nominations, shared last week.

Olivia Dean and Lola Young lead the nominations with five, while Sam Fender is up for four awards. Nominated for three BRITs a piece are Lily AllenDaveFred again.. and Jim Legxacy.

This year’s awards will take place on February 28 and broadcast exclusively on ITV1 and ITVX. Comedian and actor Jack Whitehall will return once more, marking his sixth time hosting the music ceremony.
