Recognising the many achievements of Aussie artists across all music genres, the ARIA Awards are the music industry’s annual night of nights.
The ARIA Awards have come a long way since they were first held in front of 500 industry guests at the Sydney Sheraton Wentworth Hotel in 1987. Three decades later, the ARIAs are now held in front of thousands of guests and broadcast to an audience of millions across Australia and around the world.
We've created this page to give ARIA members a single destination for all ARIA Awards-related information. We'll be updating this page regularly so we recommend you bookmark it so you can easily find the information as you need it.
