Mark Ronson 2026 press shot
Mark Ronson will be honoured with an Outstanding Contribution To Music award at this year’s Brit Awards later this month, it has been announced.
The producer’s two-decade career has seen him rack up numerous global hits, including Bruno Mars’s ‘Uptown Funk’, Amy Winehouse’s ‘Valerie’ and Miley Cyrus’s ‘Nothing Breaks Like A Heart’.
Ronson, who is also confirmed to perform on the night, said: “This is the most meaningful honor of my career. I think of the times I’ve watched artists I revere accept this same award. The idea that I’m now standing in that lineage feels impossible.
“I left England as a kid, but this country runs through everything I’ve made. The UK artists I’ve worked with – their brilliance and refusal to compromise – shaped not just my work but how I understand what music should do. And more than anything, it’s the crowds here who’ve sustained and showed up for me.
“The fans, the festival crowds, the record buyers and streamers – the love has always been overwhelming. I’m beyond grateful for all of it.”
This year’s Brit Awards will be held on Saturday, February 28 at Manchester’s Co-op Live Arena and broadcast live on ITV1.
