Normalmente, la entrega tiene lugar en septiembre, aunque los álbumes candidatos se anuncian en julio. A menudo, los grupos que son candidatos o que ganan el Premio tienen un gran aumento en ventas de su álbum y ocurre, en particular, en cuanto a los candidatos menos conocidos.^[1]Las nominaciones son elegidas por un panel de músicos, periodistas y otras figuras de la industria musical del Reino Unido e Irlanda.

Hasta la fecha, PJ Harvey es la única artista que ha ganado este Premio en más de una ocasión (en el año 2001 y en el año 2011). También fue la primera solista femenina en recibir el Premio.^[2]
