Pop stars, key workers gather for BRIT Awards in London live music return
At the BRIT Awards on Tuesday, approximately 4,000 people gathered to witness Dua Lipa and Arlo Parks' success and performances, marking the first major indoor music event with a live audience in London in over a year. The attendees were not required to wear masks or keep their distance, as the event was part of the British government's Events Research Programme, which is designed to determine if large gatherings can be held in enclosed spaces without social distancing. Billie Eilish and The Weeknd were also among the winners at the ceremony, which took place at the O2 arena on the River Thames as the UK begins to emerge from the COVID-19 lockdown.0
