ABOUT AUSTRALIA'S ARIA AWARDS
The Australian Recording Industry Association Music Awards (commonly known as the ARIA Music Awards or simply The ARIAs) is an annual event celebrating the Australian music industry put on by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA). The event date is typically scheduled in September or early October. The date given here is estimated based on previous years' dates.
The ARIAs began in 1987 and have become the premier event on the Australian music calendar. Voting is through members of the Australian music industry (including artists, producers, engineers, and video directors) plus five publicly voted awards: Song of the Year, Best International Artist, Best Australian Live Act, Best Video, and the Telstra ARIA Music Teacher Award, which is awarded earlier in the year. The winners take home the ARIA, a stylized inverted pyramid trophy.
Initially, the ARIA Music Awards were held in small venues with audiences of around 600 people. As their popularity increased, they moved to larger venues, including the Sydney Opera House and the Star Event Centre. Today, they are also telecast on national television.
CATEGORIES
The ARIA Music Awards features numerous categories, including Album of the Year, Single of the Year, Best Male Artist, Best Female Artist, Best Group, and Breakthrough Artist, as well as genre-specific awards for categories like Best Pop Release, Best Rock Album, Best Urban Album, Best Country Album, and more.
In 1988, the ARIAs inducted successful career artists into the ARIA Hall of Fame award. Notable inductees include AC/DC, INXS, John Farnham, Kylie Minogue, and Crowded House.
The ARIAs are instrumental in shaping public and international perceptions of Australian music. They've launched successful international careers and are considered a critical achievement in the global music scene.
PLEASE NOTE:
Treat all televised and venue-specific events (sporting, concerts, trade shows, etc.) as estimated. Several factors can cause an event to move dates at the last minute, including weather, strikes, natural disasters, political upheaval, conflicting programming, pandemics, and current events. Because of this, always verify the event with the promotor before committing resources. LEEP often estimates dates based on the previous year's schedules, as the final dates are only a few months, weeks, or days before the event. If the date is known to be estimated, you will see an (est) following the date in the title.
