Hot Press Awards return

It’s back, the most downrightly decadent night of the year! Yup, April 25th finds Belfast playing host to the 2002 Hot Press Music Awards.

Staged in conjunction with the BBC, who’ll be airing it on several channels, the gong-giving ceremony is part of the 25th Birthday celebrations that HP are mounting throughout the year.

With the likes of U2, Westlife, Enya, Ash, JJ72, David Kitt, The Frames, The Corrs, David Holmes [above with Niall Stokes] and Snow Patrol all enjoying a great 12 months, the competition promises to be fiercer than ever.
