Brit Awards 2011 was the 31st edition of the British Phonographic Industry's annual pop music show, the Brit Awards. The awards ceremony was held on Tuesday 15 February 2011[2] at The O2 Arena in London for the first time in its history, moving from the original venue of Earls Court, also in London.[3] The ceremony was hosted by James Corden.[4][5] Leading the nominations was Tinie Tempah with four nominations. The artists with the most awards won were Tinie Tempah and Arcade Fire, with two wins each.[6][7][8] The 2011 awards were billed as a reboot of the Brit Awards format featuring a different venue, a new award statuette designed by Vivienne Westwood and a greater emphasis placed on music, particularly live performances. Whilst the re-working of the show was generally well received,[9] the TV audience was the lowest for five years,[10] with an average viewership of 4.8 million viewers peaking at 5.9 million.
