SBTV 20

SBTV is throwing a party worthy of its incredible legacy, and it is shaping up to be one of the biggest celebrations UK music has ever seen. Taking place on 11 November 2026 at The O2, London, SBTV 20 marks 20 years since Jamal Edwards MBE turned a Christmas camcorder into the launchpad for a generation of talent. The event promises an unforgettable night packed with iconic artists, special moments and a whole lot of history. More than just another concert, this is a celebration of the culture, the community and the lasting impact of one of Britain's most influential music platforms.

The first wave of artists already reads like a greatest hits playlist of UK music. Wiley, Chip, Lady Leshurr, Big Narstie, Dappy, Tinchy Stryder, Roll Deep, Scorcher, Nolay, Professor Green, WSTRN, Yungen, DJ Target, Kenny Allstar, Griminal, Kasst 8 and Kyla are all set to take the stage, with even more names still waiting in the wings. It is a lineup that bridges generations, bringing together grime pioneers, breakout SBTV favourites and artists inspired by the platform that helped redefine British music.

Jamal Edwards began filming friends in Acton at just 15 years old, building SBTV into a cultural powerhouse that introduced the world to future stars including Ed Sheeran, Stormzy, Dave and Jessie J. His passion for discovering fresh talent changed the music industry forever, proving that great artists could come from anywhere with the right platform behind them.

The celebration also supports the Jamal Edwards Self Belief Trust, continuing Jamal's mission of empowering young people through creativity, opportunity and confidence. Tanisha Artman shared that the event honours everyone who helped shape SBTV while keeping Jamal's vision alive for future generations. Ernest Promotions' Shiraz Baziko has also teased plenty of surprises still to come, making this feel like only the opening chapter. With an already stacked lineup and more announcements on the horizon, SBTV 20 is ready to remind everyone why its influence on British music remains second to none.
