ARIA CEO, Annabelle Herd, said: “Everyone at ARIA is absolutely thrilled to celebrate such an incredible list of commercially successful nominees for 2024, across a huge breadth of genres. It is a list that covers global megastars, touring acts on the brink of world domination and a genuinely exciting group of up-and-coming stars with plenty of buzz. 

“Personally, I’m really excited by the stars dominating stages across the world in this year’s hotly-contested Best Dance Release, but it’s certainly not isolated to one genre. This year we get to celebrate a deep list of household names in Australian music that span all genres, highlighting the huge shift in positive momentum that the Australian music industry experienced this year. It’s a time to acknowledge those who are achieving amazing things, and spotlight those who are about to, to ensure we continue this momentum forward into 2025. Congratulations to all of the nominees, their teams, and of course the fans. See you in November!”

Minister for the Arts, Minister for Music and the Night-time Economy and Minister for Jobs and Tourism, John Graham, said: “As a huge fan of Australian music, I want to join ARIA in congratulating all the nominees for 2024. This year’s ARIAs demonstrate just how many talented musicians we have, across such a wide range of genres. In NSW the government has been working to revive our live music scene, because it is such an important breeding ground for musical talent. We will continue backing musicians, producers, events and venues to keep Australian music going strong.”

Marion Goodman-Briand, Manager, Music Content Partnerships, YouTube Australia & New Zealand, said: “Congratulations to the 2024 ARIA nominees! You’ve earned this recognition, and we’re proud to share your music with the world on YouTube. See you at the ARIA Awards on November 20.”
