A ROYAL 30TH CELEBRATION

PRINCE HARRY WISHES HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE BRIT AWARDS

With a special birthday message from Prince Harry for the 30th Anniversary of the BRIT Awards, it’s a double celebration for UK record labels’ body, the BPI. The congratulatory message from the young Royal and keen music lover will be aired during The BRIT Awards with MasterCard on Tuesday 16 February 2010 at London’s Earls Court Arena.

Prince Harry comments: ‘The BRITs is a celebration of all that is totally outstanding and unique about British music. And what’s less well known about the BRITs is the fantastic work it does raising millions of pounds for the BRIT Trust which has benefited thousands of young people to develop their talents and generally enrich our society.’

The jewel in the Crown of the music industry, The BRIT Awards 2010 with MasterCard will showcase the sheer depth and diversity of British and International music talent, from the past year’s big releases. With a history of spectacular staging and memorable performances, this 30th Anniversary show is guaranteed to please, with more jaw-dropping moments from performers Lady Gaga, Jay-Z, Cheryl Cole, Lily Allen, Dizzee Rascal & Florence and the Machine, Kasabian, JLS and Robbie Williams than ever before. Expect dancers galore, pyro-mania and never seen before feats of technology to keep guests gripped to their seats and viewers glued to their screens!

The BRIT Awards 2010 with MasterCard will take place on Tuesday 16 February at London’s Earls Court Arena and will be show LIVE on ITV1 from 8pm.
