Back in its usual February slot, The BRIT Awards 2022 with Mastercard took place on Tuesday 8th February, with comedian Mo Gilligan taking the reigns for the first time in the show's history.

Featuring some big winners on the night and some simply ICONIC performances, it's safe to say The BRIT Awards 2022 was a memorable one.

Dave's insane closing performance

Bringing an amazing ceremony to an end, Dave took to the stage to give a phenomenal performance, featuring Giggs, Ghetts and Fredo. And yes, it included a flame thrower...

Adele's inspirational speech

Picking up yet another award, Adele shared an inspirational message during her heart-warming speech.

Becky Hill revealing what's next after her BRIT Award win...

Adele's iconic performance

Shortly before picking up her second award of the night, Adele wowed the crowd as she showed off her gorgeous vocals while performing her track 'I Drink Wine'.

Becky Hill picking up her first BRIT Award...

Congrats to Becky on her first BRIT Award win!

...And her emotional thank you speech

Picking up her first ever BRIT Award for Best Dance Act, supported by KISS, it's fair to say Becky Hill got us feeling all kinds of feels!

Olivia Rodrigo winning her first ever BRIT Award

'good 4 u' icon Olivia Rodrigo stunned as she picked up her first ever BRIT Award - just one year after making her debut UK performance at the 2021 ceremony!

Adele's acceptance speech for Song Of The Year

Picking up the Song Of The Year award for her legendary track 'Easy On Me', Adele gushed: "I didn't realise that there were that many songs, I can't believe a piano ballad won against that many bangers.

"Thank you so much, it's always a pleasure to be here and I always love coming home and The BRITs were a big part of my career, coming from way back when I was a little fetus, thank you so much, I love you to and all, how do I get down there with two things in my hand?"

Ed Sheeran setting the arena on FIRE with his opening performance 🔥

Of course, we all knew that Ed Sheeran's BRIT Award performance would be nothing shy of amazing, and the addition of rock band Bring Me The Horizon certainly brought the heat!

KSI reveals his wild plans for after The BRIT Award ceremony...

In what may be the most relatable moment of the night, KSI revealed that he won't be attending Adele's rumoured after party plans, as he will be at home asleep.

Adele's jaw dropping gown... And ring 👀

Of course, Adele arrived looking as stunning as ever as she prepared to perform at this year's ceremony.

We couldn't take our eyes off of a certain sparkly ring, however, which has fans convinced that Adele is engaged!
