The Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) is thrilled to announce that Nine Network’s TODAY News and Entertainment presenter, Brooke Boney, and comedian and radio host Tommy Little will co-host the 2023 ARIA Awards in partnership with YouTube on Wednesday, 15 November at the Hordern Pavilion.
Brooke and Tommy will join an illustrious list of entertainers and artists who have previously hosted the Awards including Andy Lee, Bob Geldof, Dannii Minogue, G Flip, Guy Sebastian, Hamish Blake, Hugh Jackman, Keith Urban, Megan Washington, Molly Meldrum, Natalie Imbruglia, Richard Wilkins, Rove McManus, Ruby Rose, Ruel and Sir Elton John.
Brooke Boney, a proud Gamilaroi woman and respected journalist, television presenter and reporter for the TODAY show, has become a familiar face across Australian screens. Having previously worked at NITV, SBS and Triple J, Brooke has a deep passion for entertainment and music with an incredible ability to connect with people and capture the hearts of viewers across the nation.
Tommy Little is the most exciting comedian of his generation, bringing his signature high energy and enthusiasm to the stage, night after night, year after year. His third Amazon Comedy Special Pretty Fly For a Dickhead was just released in April on Prime Video. Tommy is beloved across Australia as one half of popular national radio program The Carrie and Tommy Show.
With their combined wit, charisma, and passion for music, Brooke and Tommy are set to lead an unforgettable celebration of the year in Australian music, in a night filled with exceptional performances from Australia’s top artists and exciting moments.
Brooke Said: “I’m absolutely thrilled to co-host the 2023 ARIA Awards alongside Tommy. Music has the power to bring people together, and it’s an honour to be a part of an event that celebrates the incredible talent within Australia’s music industry. Tommy and I can’t wait to bring our energy and love for music to the ARIA stage in Sydney, and we promise you a night filled with laughter, amazing performances, and plenty of celebrations. It’s going to be a night to remember!"
Tommy Said: “Brooke Boney and I are the perfect Yin and Yang. She is professional, articulate and extremely hardworking, so I guess I will just do the other bits. I absolutely love Australian music but I am also tone deaf, so this is the closest I will ever get to an ARIA and I can’t wait.”
The 2023 ARIA Awards will once again take place at Sydney’s iconic Hordern Pavilion that has hosted many of the world’s, and Australia’s, leading performers.

The Red-Carpet segment was brief, which is good.
They are showing quite a few awards that were presented “earlier in the night”…
Some of Tommy Little’s jokes are quite flat.

Stan subscribers would have been able to see those categories presented live.

Not very well edited. A bit hacked up. Some acceptance speeches cut off, abruptly, then time wasted on waffle called “backstage bites.”

Also, really weird how they started the show with an interview with a nominee via satellite. Was it necessary when he ended up winning and had a chance to talk later anyway?

Watched the whole thing now. Just ridiculous how they produced this. Most of the award presentation were shown as “Earlier” and you only saw a one sentence snippet of the speeches. Whatever award presentation was shown was also hacked. If they want to cut something why not cut the one or two minutes it takes for winners to hug everyone at their table and walk up to the stage.
What’s the point of showing ten seconds of Emma Memma winning an award but then being asked stupid questions backstage for three or four minutes?

The show was a mess last night. The ratings were again quite low. Perhaps without the cricket they might have been higher but otherwise they have been stuck below 300k since 2019. 2016 was probably a highlight when they got 580,000.

The main problem was that editing was taking place while the awards ceremony was still in progress (and live on Stan), so the result was very choppy.
There was a promo during Nine’s broadcast telling viewers to watch the full ceremony on demand on Stan.

Absolute mess. One of the big winners was Troye Sivan who is having big pop success at the moment but they hacked up his big acceptance speech and his other wins on stage were only shown as “Earlier” for about ten seconds.
They promoted Dolly Parton as a presenter, yet they edited that presentation down to less than a minute on screen.

The mishap came during the presentation of the Best Hip Hop/Rap category, for which Kerser was nominated for his chart-topping album A Gift & A Kers.
A camera shot of nominees appeared to show the MC in attendance at Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion. But as the 36-year-old pointed out, he was not. Instead, the camera doubled up with a shot of Kahukx alongside nominees Genesis Owusu, Tkay Maidza, and ONEFOUR.
I guess he’ll never be nominated for anything again…ever.
