Lewis Capaldi, Lizzo and Stormzy were among the first to arrive on the red carpet for the 2020 Brit Awards, aka, the biggest night in British pop music.

This year's awards, the 40th since its inception in 1980, featured a slate of some of the biggest stars in music taking to the stage.

Hosted by comedian Jack Whitehall, this year's ceremony featured performances from the likes of Stormzy, Billie Eilish and Harry Styles, who gave an emotional performance of his ballad, Falling.
