BRITs Reportedly Plan In Memoriam Tribute for Ozzy Osbourne and Mani at Manchester Ceremony

Reports say the Feb. 28 Manchester show will feature a broader remembrance, with details still unconfirmed.

Overview

  • Organisers are planning a large-scale In Memoriam segment, according to reports citing The Sun and relayed by multiple outlets.
  • The tribute would recognise several artists lost in the past year, including Ozzy Osbourne and Gary "Mani" Mounfield.
  • The BRIT Awards are set for Feb. 28 at Manchester’s Co‑op Live, marking a move from London and a likely rotation to other UK locations, per reporting.
  • Official documents state Ozzy died on July 22, 2025, with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and acute myocardial infarction, alongside coronary artery disease and Parkinson’s with autonomic dysfunction.
  • Mani died at home in November after a seizure, and while Stone Roses members carried his coffin in December, The Sun reports they are not expected to take part in the BRITs tribute.
