Pop star PinkPantheress has been revealed as the guest announcer on trams in Manchester ahead of the city hosting the Brit Awards.

The 24-year-old's voice can be heard on services running from the city centre to the ceremony at the Co-op Live arena.

The multi-platinum recording artist, songwriter and producer made history when she became the first woman to win the Brit's Producer of the Year award.

The musician, whose hits include Illegal, Stateside and Boy's A Liar, is also the youngest ever recipient of the award since its inception in 1977.

"Music is at the heart of Manchester's culture and is fundamental to the city's growth, making the Brit Awards' first visit here a truly significant moment," said Clodagh Buckley, from Transport for Greater Manchester.

"We can't wait to welcome everyone heading into Manchester this weekend, and what better way to mark the occasion than to have PinkPantheress featuring as the voice helping people get to the show smoothly."
