That's how you celebrate a 30th
The highly anticipated performance line-up for the 2016 ARIA Awards ceremony has been unveiled, with the event’s 30th-anniversary celebrations hosting a fittingly eclectic line-up.
Returning to The Star in Sydney next Wednesday, 23 November, punters will be treated to a performance from Flume, taking to the hometown stage with 11 nominations to boot, while other Song Of The Year nominees come out in full force to prove their worth, with Illy set to dish up his Vera Blue collab, Papercuts, and The Veronicas and Troye Sivan also billed.
Best Female Artist and Best Male Artist nominees Jessica Mauboy and Bernard Fanning have also been confirmed with Missy Higgins.
In an ARIA first, three Hall Of Fame artists will perform during the ceremony, with this year’s inductees, Crowded House, accompanied by legends Jimmy Barnes and John Farnham.
