Mark Ronson will be honored with the Outstanding Contribution to Music Award at the 2026 BRIT Awards, which will be held in Manchester.

The celebrated artist and producer, a 10-time Grammy winner at age 50, will receive an honor at a ceremony on February 28th at the Co-op Live venue.

Mark will join Harry Styles, Olivia Dean, and Wolf Alice as a performer at the event, completing the confirmed lineup for the star-studded evening.

The British actor expressed immense gratitude for the award, calling it the most significant of his 20-year career.

Mark shared that receiving this award is the greatest honor of his career. He recalled watching his heroes accept the same award and said it feels surreal to now be considered among them.

I moved away from England when I was young, but it continues to be a huge influence on my work. The British artists I’ve collaborated with—their talent and dedication to their vision—have deeply impacted both my music and my understanding of what music can achieve.

I’m most thankful for the incredible support of my fans. Whether they’ve come to shows, bought my music, or streamed it online, their love has always meant the world to me, and I’m deeply grateful for everything.

This British musician is a major force in today’s music scene, and has been key to the success of many award-winning artists around the globe.

He’s already won numerous awards, including two BRIT Awards and ten Grammys. Some of his most famous works include Uptown Funk with Bruno Mars and Amy Winehouse’s hit song, Back to Black.

As a lifestyle expert, I’m always impressed by true talent, and this producer definitely has it! They actually won both an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for co-writing ‘Shallow’ with Lady Gaga – you know, the incredible song from ‘A Star Is Born.’ It’s a testament to their creative skill!

Throughout his twenty-year career, he’s earned over 25 billion streams worldwide and produced hit records like Amy Winehouse’s “Valerie,” “Nothing Breaks Like a Heart” featuring Miley Cyrus, and “Electricity” with Silk City & Dua Lipa.

Stacey Tang, who leads the 2026 BRIT Awards Committee and is a co-president at RCA Records (part of Sony Music UK), stated that Mark has had a huge and widespread impact on modern culture.

He’s had a huge impact on music around the world, creating amazing albums both for himself and for other artists he’s helped discover and develop.

Mark consistently takes his projects to the next level. This award celebrates his significant impact on the worldwide success of British music and confirms his status as a truly groundbreaking artist.

The 2026 BRIT Awards, sponsored by Mastercard, will be held on Saturday, February 28th at the Co-op Live arena in Manchester. You can watch the show on ITV, and Jack Whitehall will be hosting.

The BRIT Award trophies this year were designed by Matthew Williamson, a celebrated designer originally from Manchester.

The nominations for this year’s awards are out, and Olivia Dean and Lola Young are the frontrunners, each receiving five nominations.

Close behind them is Sam Fender, who received four nominations after winning the Mercury Prize last year.

Several other British musicians are also nominated for awards this year, including Lily Allen, Calvin Harris, Cynthia Erivo, JADE, Wolf Alice, Ed Sheeran, Little Simz, PinkPantheress, Pulp, RAYE, Skye Newman, and Wet Leg.
