The British acts are the last performers confirmed for the upcoming awards ceremony, which will take place at The O2 in London on Saturday March 1, and broadcast exclusively on ITV1 and ITVX.
Last week it was announced that Sabrina Carpenter was confirmed to perform at the annual award ceremony. The likes of JADE, Shaboozey, Teddy Swims, The Last Dinner Party and Myles Smith are also set to perform.
Like many of the other performers, Fender and Young have both earned nominations – with Fender being up for both Artist of the Year and Alt/Rock Act, while Young is in the running for Pop Act. You can see the full list of nominees here.
Speaking about her upcoming performance, Young said: “I am super excited and grateful to be performing at The BRIT Awards this year. It’s a dream come true and an absolute honour to share this moment alongside so many incredible artists.
“To be nominated is a huge achievement for me and I’m so thankful for all the support I’ve received.”
Meanwhile, Fender said: “Me and the band are so excited to perform at The BRIT Awards this year – we can’t wait to get up on that stage again!”
Their fellow performers are also in the running to win awards on the night. JADE is up for Song of the Year and Pop Act, while The Last Dinner Party are nominated for Mastercard Album of the Year, Group of the Year, Best New Artist and Alternative/Rock Act. Smith is also nominated for three awards: Best New Artist, Song of the Year and Pop Act.
Carpenter will be the recipient of the prestigious Global Success award at this year’s ceremony. She will join an elite roster of acts who have been awarded the exclusive prize – past recipients are limited to One Direction, Ed Sheeran, Adele and Sam Smith.
This year’s top nominee is Charli XCX, who leads the pack with five nods including Artist Of The Year, Pop Act and Dance Act. Her collaboration with Billie Eilish, ‘Guess’, is also up for Song Of The Year, while her ‘BRAT’ record is shortlisted for Mastercard Album Of The Year.
Back in November, the new trophy design was revealed ahead of the 2025 ceremony. It was created by Gabriel Moses, an acclaimed British-Nigerian multi-disciplinary artist, who has collaborated with the likes of Skepta, Little Simz, Burberry and more throughout the years.
