ARIA Unveils 2025 ARIA Awards Presents Event Program

With just a few weeks to go until this year’s ARIA Awards ceremony, ARIA has unveiled this year’s Presents events program.

Coinciding with AusMusic Month and the 2025 ARIA Awards, numerous music-related events have been locked in as part of this year’s programming. Australia’s finest established and up-and-coming talent will be showcased through activities and programs, including live concerts, panel discussions, partner events, and more.

Among the event series are the world-first screening of Daniel Johns: What If The Future Never Happened?, Ridin’ Hearts festival, Sound Advice by MusicNSW, AusMusic T-Shirt Day, Spotify Artist Party, and the Sydney Opera House’s On The Steps concert series.

You can find the full ARIA Awards Presents program below.

“The ARIA Awards Presents program is an important opportunity to highlight the diversity and strength of Australian music by creating more stages and more opportunities for our artists to connect with communities outside of the ARIA Awards themselves,” said ARIA CEO Annabelle Herd.

“Each event is another chance to showcase the creativity that is pushing Australian music further onto the global stage, and to remind Australians why our artists matter so much at home.”
