The Brit Award for British Group is an award given by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), an organisation which represents record companies and artists in the United Kingdom.[1] The accolade is presented at the Brit Awards, an annual celebration of British and international music.[2] The winners and nominees are determined by the Brit Awards voting academy with over 1,000 members, which comprise record labels, publishers, managers, agents, media, and previous winners and nominees.[3]
The inaugural recipients of the award are the Beatles, who won in 1977. Coldplay hold the record for most wins in the category, with four, while Radiohead hold the record for most nominations without a win, with seven. In 2021, Little Mix made history by becoming the first female group to win the award. The current holder of the award is Jungle, who won in 2024.
