O Classic BRIT Awards (anteriormente Classical BRIT Awards) são uma cerimônia de premiação anual realizada no Reino Unido, cobrindo aspectos da música clássica e crossover, e são o equivalente do Brit Awards da música popular.

Os prêmios são organizados pela British Phonographic Industry (BPI) e foram inaugurados em 2000 "em reconhecimento às conquistas dos músicos clássicos e ao crescimento das vendas de música clássica no Reino Unido". A cerimônia acontece no Royal Albert Hall em maio. O evento combina performances ao vivo com prêmios especialmente comissionados apresentados durante a noite.

A votação para os prêmios é feita por "uma academia de executivos da indústria, a mídia, a British Association of Record Dealers (BARD), membros do Sindicato dos Músicos, advogados, promotores e líderes de orquestra", exceto "Álbum do Ano" que é votado por ouvintes da Classic FM.

Desde 2011, a cerimônia é conhecida como "Classic BRIT Awards". Após um hiato de cinco anos após a cerimônia de 2013, o Classic BRIT Awards retornou com uma transmissão do Royal Albert Hall em 13 de junho de 2018.^[1]
