The hottest night in the Australian music calendar is almost here.
On November 20, the who’s-who of Australia’s music scene will make their way to Sydney for the 2024 ARIA Awards.

LAROI! Kylie!—to those making waves on Australian shores, it’s sure to be a star-studded event.
The Kid LAROI, Missy Higgins, Jessica Mauboy and more are due to perform, with presenters including G Flip, Artemas and Budjerah, among others. It’s safe to say it’s a ceremony (and red carpet) you won’t want to miss: Scroll on for all the deets on who might be there and where to tune in at home.
