While not every nominee can take home a Brit Awards trophy this year, no one at this afterparty will leave empty-handed.

The 2025 Brits take place tonight with performances by Sabrina Carpenter, Sam Fender, Jade, and more set to light up the stage.

Hosted by Jack Whitehall as the comedian returns for the fifth time, the biggest night in British music sees the likes of Dua Lipa, Charli XCX, Raye, Chappell Roan, Coldplay, Ezra Collective, and The Last Dinner Party up for top gongs.

As ever, the Brits is a truly raucous night, while the parties that follow are even wilder, with celebs pictured bleary-eyed and falling out of taxis amid the boozy celebrations.

One of those parties has been hailed as the ‘hottest ticket in town,’ not only for its frequently starry guest list but also the luxurious goodie bag that’s handed out.

Former attendees of the Sony bash at the Nobu Hotel in London Portman Square include Harry Styles, Bella Hadid, and Kendall Jenner.

Staff are remaining tight-lipped on which A-listers will be walking through the doors this time, but whoever’s on the guest list is sure to have a night to remember.

There will be free-flowing Laurent Perrier champagne and unlimited cocktails, including Eastern standards, spicy margaritas, and espresso Martini.

Ensuring no one goes hungry amid the night of drinking and dancing, the food menu for talent includes unlimited sushi, black cod, truffle, and wagyu beef.

As for other big extravagances during the night, Saki shots are given on arrival, and guests can marvel at an epic ice sculpture created specifically for the party.

Meanwhile, the biggest expenditure is a high-end immersive Japanese lantern studio where celebrities can have their photos taken to commemorate the evening.

With a VIP bar downstairs and Calvin Harris plus Jade Thrilwall rumoured to be showing up, perhaps they’ll get on the decks during the secret DJ set.

Once the night is over and the celebs are hailing cabs to get home, VIPs will be given an Antler suitcase filled with up to £1,500 worth of goodies.

These include Ray Ban sunglasses, Floral Street fragrance, and beauty products from Monpure.

Inside will also be a pair of Dr Martens, GHD styling products, and skincare from Elemis, all of which will undoubtedly make tomorrow morning feel like Christmas day as hungover stars unwrap the treats.

The Brit Awards kick off tonight on ITV and ITVX at 8.15pm, with the show ending at 10:40pm.

Host Jack last took the helm in 2021, and before that, he hosted consecutively in 2018, 2019, and 2020, so we have no doubt he’s got plenty of hilarious material up his sleeve.

Announcing his return, the 36-year-old said: ‘They say that absence makes the heart grow fonder, and that is absolutely the case with The Brit Awards/

‘It is my favourite night of the year, and I am delighted to be invited back to host in 2025.’

Last year’s ceremony was hosted by Maya Jama, Roman Kemp, and Clara Amfo, while Mo Gilligan was in charge in 2023 and 2022.
