How to watch Brit Awards 2022: on TV or online
The Brit Awards are back in 2023 and with performances by Stormzy, Lizzo and Harry Styles, this night will be one to remember.
Everything you need to know is here, including time, TV channel, performers and nominees. We also have all the information you need to watch the awards ceremony outside of the UK.
When will the Brit Awards 2023 take place?
The Brit Awards will take place Saturday, February 11, 20:30 GMT. at The O2 in London. If you are in the UK capital (or ready to come), then tickets for the event are already on sale.
What channel is the Brit Awards 2023 on?
In the UK, the Brit Awards will be broadcast on ITV1 and will run for just over two hours. You can also get backstage coverage from 1930 GMT on ITV2 featuring interviews with performers, nominees and guest speakers.
The red carpet report will also be streamed live on YouTube, TikTok, Twitter and Facebook for everyone outside the UK.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like any international channels will be airing the main show. However, if you’re not in the UK and still want to tune in, there’s a way.
How to watch Brit Awards 2023 online
Selected performances will be available to watch on YouTube after the show ends, but if you would like to watch the entire ceremony on television, you can do so through the ITV listening service. If you are in the UK, then watching ITV1 online on various devices is quite easy. Just use ITVX.
Those outside the UK will need to use a VPN to access ITVX. VPNs route your internet to another server elsewhere on the internet. This means that you can bypass geo-restrictions on some sites. In other words, you can register with ITVX outside of the UK.
We were able to register an account using NordVPN, which offers high performance, a good selection of servers, and competitive pricing, especially if you commit to a two-year plan. However, there is an option to sign up for a monthly continuous membership.
Here are the exact steps you need to take:
- Completion time: 5 minutes
- Required tools: VPN, ITVX website or app, smartphone or laptop/PC.
Sign up for NordVPN

Connect to UK server via VPN

Many VPNs have a variety of servers to choose from, so if one doesn’t work, you can try another.
Launch ITVX

Go to the ITVX website or app on the same device – it should treat you like you’re in the UK.
If this doesn’t work for some reason, try switching to a different UK server on your VPN – streaming platforms like ITVX try to block known VPN IP addresses, so you might have to try a few different servers before you find the one that works. .
It’s also worth noting that if you have an ad blocker enabled, ITVX may block it, and since some VPNs have built-in ad blocking, you may need to disable this piece of software.
Register for ITVX

If you haven’t already, make sure you’ve signed up for an ITVX account to watch. You will need to provide a valid email address, date of birth and UK postal code. You will then be able to log in as usual.
Go to the Live tab when The Brits are live.

After the show has ended, the Brits should also be available in catch-up time.
