Tickets go on sale Friday 20th January via a lottery, with a £5 donation to War Child securing you an entrance into the draw. If you’re not lucky, you can always watch The 1975 return to The 02 the following day as they perform during the Brit Awards.
Liana Mellotte, Head of Music, Entertainment Development at War Child explains that, “Since 2009, War Child has been producing really special shows around the BRIT Awards that unite some of the greatest musicians in the world in support of children living with the brutality of war.
“This year’s line-up is once again testament to the musicians who generously donate their time, talent and unending commitment to protect the rights of children in the most horrendous circumstances. Words can’t really convey how grateful we are to them, to O2 and to our supporters around the UK who make this such a special time for War Child.”
