Seven has confirmed Robert Irwin as host of the 66th TV Week Logie Awards, to air live and exclusively on Seven and 7plus on Sunday, 16 August, at The Star Sydney.
“Hosting the TV Week Logie Awards is one of the most exciting things I’ve been asked to do,” Irwin said.
“I grew up watching the Logies with my family, so this is certainly an honour. Australian television has given so much to so many people. To be part of the biggest night in Aussie TV is something I don’t take lightly. I cannot wait!”
Angus Ross, managing director of television and streaming at Seven, said the appointment was straightforward.
“He has captured the hearts of audiences from Australia to America and everywhere in between; there is simply no one better to lead Australia’s biggest night of television.”
70 years of Australian television
The 2026 ceremony doubles as a celebration of seven decades of Australian television – a milestone the industry doesn’t often get to sit with. As part of the occasion, fans can vote in the Top 70 Australian TV Shows of the Last 70 Years poll, which closes Sunday, 21 June at 5 pm AEST.
The results will be revealed on the night.
The TV Week Logie Awards are supported by the NSW Government through Destination NSW.
