Who won best British Group at the 2018 Brit Awards?

Gorillaz won Best British Group at the 2018 BRIT Awards.

The award was presented at the 38th BRIT Awards ceremony on 21 February 2018 at London’s O2 Arena. Gorillaz were recognised after the release of their fifth studio album, Humanz, which marked their return with new music after a long hiatus. The group’s genre-blending sound and ambitious visual identity helped make them one of the ceremony’s notable winners.

Gorillaz beat fellow nominees London Grammar, Royal Blood, Wolf Alice and The xx. The official BRITs category was titled “British Group,” although it is often described in media coverage and trivia questions as “Best British Group.”

A common mix-up is with The 1975: they won the same category in 2017 and again in 2019, but Gorillaz took the prize in 2018. The award was one of several major British music honours presented that night, alongside British Female Solo Artist for Dua Lipa and British Male Solo Artist for Stormzy.
