Olivia Dean ends the year on a high note

Olivia Dean takes the double for the third week in a row as the final ARIA Charts for 2026 roll in. The Art Of Loving holds at #1 on the ARIA Albums Chart for the fourth non-consecutive week and Man I Need rules the singles chart for the sixth straight week. 

Twenty-seven albums reached #1 this year, with Sabrina Carpenter’s Short N’ Sweet and Taylor Swift’s The Life Of A Showgirl holding the longest reigns at seven weeks each. Six Aussie acts reached the summit: Ball Park Music, Bliss n Eso, Jimmy Barnes, Calum Hood, Hilltop Hoods and 5 Seconds Of Summer. 

Just nine songs topped the ARIA Singles Chart this year. Alex Warren’s Ordinary ruled for 17 weeks, while Golden from the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack spent 10 weeks at #1. 

English rapper EsDeeKid is on the move on the ARIA Singles Chart with three singles: Phantom featuring Rico Ace jumps from #31 to #21, 4 Raws is up from #54 to #28 and Century climbs from #60 to #45. 

Christmas rules the On Replay charts, with Michael Buble’s Christmas reclaiming the #1 albums spot and Mariah Carey’s All I Want For Christmas Is You holding firm at #1 on the singles chart. The top 26 singles are all Christmas songs, interrupted by Zara Larsson’s Lush Life at #27.
