The newly announced events include the ‘Pass The Mic’ showcase, Meta Music Morning, the Spotify Artist Party, the Soho House x ARIA Awards ICONS Brunch, and the Toyota 55th Golden Guitar Awards Nominations Event.
“ARIA Week continues to grow and evolve to match the conversations of the moment across Australian music and the broader creative economy, we’re very proud of this year’s program and the balance it strikes between the artists who’ve shaped this industry and the ones coming through right now,” ARIA CEO Annabelle Herd said in a statement.
“Every showcase, masterclass and concert across ARIA Week puts more artists in front of the fans and the industry who can take them further. Thank you to all of our partners for making it possible.”
The 40th Annual ARIA Awards will stream live on Paramount+ from 5pm AEDT on Wednesday, November 18th.
