The awards

Your night to shine

Black tie, bright lights and a room full of the people who make the industry run.

The red carpet

Dress up, show up and walk it. Cameras, flashes and all.

The spotlight

Winners are called to the stage in front of the whole industry.

The room

Australia’s best creators, performers and businesses, together for one unforgettable night.

New for 2027 · Our first theme

Age of Excess.

The dress code is black tie. The 2027 theme is the Age of Excess: opulence, drama and more-is-more glamour.

It is a theme, not a costume party. Come in black tie and let the theme show up in the details, from texture and tailoring to jewels and styling. Interpret it your way.
