London

With the stunning Hurlingham private members' club as the host once again for this year's event, there is quite simply no Classic Car event like Salon Prive; in the Capital, possibly in the UK.

The awards began in 1977 under the auspices of the BPI, the British record industry's trade association. The last BPI Awards show took place at the Albert Hall and was the first prime-time TV event hosted on ITV. In 1989 they were renamed the Britannia Awards, or BRIT Awards.
