Join us on Sunday 15 October 2023, Black Brits will be hosting an awards ceremony entitled:

‘Upon The Shoulders Of Giants 2023’

These awards will recognise and celebrate the unsung heroes and trail blazing pioneers who have laid the foundations upon which we stand and continue to build today. Without those brave pioneers making that journey to the UK all those years ago and sticking it out through unfamiliar weather, social intolerance and menial paid work, we, (the first born generation in Britain) may not have been afforded the opportunities we now enjoy.

A host of celebrities will be in attendance to present and receive awards with or on behalf of their parents who have paved the way for them to succeed in their chosen fields.

Live performances by the Queens of Lovers Rock Legends, Carroll Thompson and Janet Kay in addition to poetry by Natural Wright and the amazing orchestral Quartet Dulcis Ensemble. All that and so much more.

Doors open at 17:30

Awards Ceremony Starts 18:00

Ceremony and Show Ends 21:00
