While many punters don’t believe their area has adequate live music infrastructure, live music remains incredibly popular among those surveyed.

Five of the six previously announced winners in the public-voted categories of Music Victoria's 2024 Awards have been changed.

The guitars, which retail for over USD $1,000, have caught the ire of Gibson, who have issued a case and desist order against Trump Guitars.

Carlton's beloved La Mama Theatre is pressing pause on next year's programming as it launches a campaign to raise funds to assure its future.

The new fortnightly program sees host Robyn Challands bringing four hours of "beatdown, youth crew, melodic hardcore, crossover thrash, and everything in between".

Sabrina Carpenter, Linkin Park, Chappell Roan, and more have also picked up significant nominations.

Rosen said he’s “incredibly excited” to take on the expanded role.

The program aims to “provide a realistic and sustainable” training pathway to help nurture the next generation of artist managers.

Scott Mesiti has worked on tours such as Ice Cube and Cypress Hill, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, Hans Zimmer, Knotfest, and many more.

"This is not a trial to decide if Victoria will implement pill testing. It’s a trial to understand how to implement it."

"Our rebrand presents an opportunity to unify the diverse aspects of our Music and Live portfolios under a cohesive identity," said Winarch Group CEO Kyle McKendry.

Other big winners on the night included Dom Dolla, Teen Jesus And The Jean Teasers, and Speed.
