Representatives of independent and major record labels across the UK, the BPI host the iconic BRIT Awards, and support the transformative power of music and the creative arts through the BRIT Trust.

In 2023, in their first major expansion since 2018 and marking 50 years of the BPI, the BRIT Certified scheme is getting a major expansion with the BRIT Billion Awards.

Custom Awards For The Music Industry

Gaudio's in-house design team worked with the BPI to create a unique bespoke award to capture this monumental achievement.

The BRITs logo is one that’s seen some evolution since it’s launch in 1977, but the iconic statuette is one element that’s remained consistent. The basis for each years trophy, there are few such well-established icons that can sustain the creative expression of the ever-changing BRIT Awards trophy. Year-on-year, the design morphs to include new shapes, colours, and forms while retaining that iconic statuette. From brightly coloured figures to this years ‘hats off to you’ design, each award captures the moment with boldness and individuality worthy of the British music industry.

To create a new custom award that incorporated the much-loved statuette, while reflecting the contemporary developments in the industry championed and recognised by the BPI, Gaudio’s in-house design team went through several design iterations in a collaborative process.

The final design is a recreation of the ‘B’ in the BRITs logo, encapsulating a solid aluminium rendition of the figure. This unique custom award is freestanding, crafted from cast acrylic for a super shiny finish. Each piece is printed in-house at Gaudio’s production space. As well as the BRIT Billion logo, the award will display the winning artists name. Personalised print makes each trophy more than just a generic display piece, but a treasured symbol of this huge achievement.

Blank

When you order a blank trophy, it will arrive without any personalised details. The trophy is blank for you to add your own personalisation, or use as a decorative piece.

Engraved

Engraving etches your design into the surface of the trophy.

Printed

Print is colour-matched. Based on variations in computer and screen settings, and manufacturing tolerances, colours may appear differently to what you see on screen.

Personalise Online

Select your layout using the dropdown menu, then enter your details. The live proof shows you an approximate visual of how your trophy will look when it’s engraved. Once you’ve added the details you want and purchased your trophy, we’ll begin manufacture right away.

Please note: The live render is an estimate of how your trophy will look, and the final result may vary in size, colour and placement.

Gaudio Proofing Service

With the Gaudio Proofing Service, simply add your chosen trophy to your cart and checkout as normal. A member of the team will be in touch to collect the required details, and we’ll send you proofs to approve before manufacture. Delivery time excludes proofing.
