Queensland music’s night of nights is fast-approaching and the soundtrack to the evening is taking shape, with QMAs revealing who will perform at this year’s ceremony.

The Queensland Music Awards will take place at Brisbane’s Fortitude Music Hall on March 3, with Cub Sport, Busby Marou, Jaguar Jonze and Order Sixty6 revealed on the first artist announcement and more to be confirmed as the event approaches.

“The 2020 Queensland Music Awards are shaping up to be the most exciting Awards that QMusic has presented finding their new home in the beautiful Fortitude Music Hall,” QMAs Executive Producer Angela Samut said.

“The ceremony will feature incredible Queensland talent which is a reflection of the consistently high quality of artists coming through the ranks in our state. The calibre of artists entering the 2020 QMAs has been unprecedented and next week we announce our world-class category finalists.

“I’m also very happy to say we have some exciting news regarding our Emerging Artist of the Year Award soon!”

Cub Sport’s Tim Nelson added: "I love the QMAs because they celebrate the diverse talent from throughout all of Queensland.

“It’s also exciting to discover new artists who will likely be the future of Queensland music. I remember hearing about Amy Shark when she won her first QMA, fast forward a couple of years and she’s winning ARIAs, selling out shows all around the world and casually hanging out with Nicole Kidman. Zo and I have a stripped-back performance planned for the night which I’m really excited for!"

Tickets to the 2020 QMAs are now on sale, with premium passes - which include a three-hour dining and beverage package including a two-course meal and prime cabaret-style seating – also available.
