The BRIT Awards 2020 with Mastercard - Show Programme

SCOFF, THEN
WE’RE OFF!
HERE’S THE PLAN FOR THE NIGHT
FOR OUR LUCKY BRITs DINERS…
Hugh Jackman opens The BRIT Awards 2019

Don’t miss your moment!
The BRIT Awards kicks off at
8pm sharp. It’ll be broadcast
on ITV1 with catch-up and
online services available.
Everyone attending The BRITs is in
for an enjoyable evening. If you are
lucky enough to join us for fine dining,
there is an even bigger treat in store.
Dinner service takes place ahead of
The BRIT Awards, with guests seated
in three areas. Hello to everyone
on the Arena floor tables, in the
VIP suites, and in Diamond Dining,
situated at the Intercontinental
Hotel. Menus vary by venue.
Diamond Dining patrons should allow
20 minutes to transfer to allocated arena
seats for the show. Please liaise with
your server as you cannot take your
drinks from one venue to the other.
Your meal tonight is a Jubilee
celebration of time travelling treats.
We celebrate the 40th BRITs show
with a nod to our first outing back
in 1977 – a time when the British
cooking tradition began to take its
first tentative steps toward more
cosmopolitan feeds. In homage to The
BRITs’ dinner served at the Grosvenor
House Hotel on that day, there is a
distinctly retro 70s flavour to the meal.
This year, we offer two main food
options. Alongside our meat-eaters
feast there is a wholly vegan choice
to preorder for the first time.
All Arena guests begin dinner with
Coronation Cauliflower. It’s a zeitgeisty
2020 vegan twist on Coronation
chicken, a dish named in 1953 and
re-discovered in 1977 honouring HRH
Queen Elizabeth’s Jubilee year.
The main course for carnivores is
mouth-watering coq au vin. It is hale
and hearty locally-source fare, just like
your mum used to do. What a treat.
And for dessert we have chef’s
special version of a multi-layered
delectation comprising festooned
ice cream waves mingling with the
thinnest slivers of mint and chocolate.
Life Water have generously placed
complimentary bottles of water on
every table. Servers are on hand to take
additional drinks orders. The Heineken
group has supplied an excellent range
of beers, lagers, ales and ciders. The
wine list is refreshing and a wide
range of spirits is also available.
Table guests who have pre-ordered
drinks will find orders already prepared
and set aside for your table.
Last year The BRITs introduced
stackable and reusable drinks glasses.
We continue to put sustainability at
the core of our planning (see page
104). All Level 1 and Level 4 drinks
will be served in reusable cups for
which a small charge is payable.
