This year's BRIT Awards, will also see the Pet Shop Boys being honoured with the Outstanding Contribution to Music Award and further live performances will be announced over the coming weeks.
Ged Doherty, Chairman of The BRITs Committee said, "We're thrilled to be able to confirm that U2 have chosen The BRITs for their first global TV performance on their new album. Their addition to the line-up for this year's show makes it possibly the best we have ever had. This cements The BRITs as one of the biggest TV events in the world."
Formed in 1976, U2 consists of Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jnr. Over their three-decade career the band have sold over 140 million albums worldwide. U2 will release their forthcoming album 'No Line on the Horizon' later this spring.
