The Brit Award for British Alternative/Rock Act (previously known as the Brit Award for British Rock Act) is an award given by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), an organisation which represents record companies and artists in the United Kingdom.[1] The accolade was presented at the Brit Awards, an annual celebration of British and international music.[2] The winners and nominees were determined by the Brit Awards voting academy with over one-thousand members comprising record labels, publishers, managers, agents, media, and previous winners and nominees.[3]

The inaugural recipients of the award are The Darkness, who won in 2004. The category only featured bands as nominees until it was revived in 2022. Muse, Kasabian and Tom Grennan hold the record for most nominations without a win, with two. Sam Fender is the first solo artist to win the category. The award is currently held by Bring Me the Horizon, who won in 2024.
