Coupled with legendary performances from over the years, ARIA 30 YEARS OF MUSIC is a roll call of the heartfelt and the heartbreaking, the funny and the awkward.

Minogue is synonymous with the ARIAs – both as a Hall Of Fame member (2011) and as a recipient of 16 Awards, including two Outstanding Achievement Awards (1990 and 2002).

She will share her fondest ARIA memories, including IanMollyMeldrum’s 2014 induction into the Hall Of Fame.

“Molly Meldrum has this ability to get us all emotional all the time and, speaking for myself, from the early days of Countdown and from Hey Hey It’s Saturday, Molly has been there all the time and he has been our conduit to not only Australian music but international music so we were pretty emotional when he was admitted into the Hall Of Fame – definitely,” she said.

The very first ARIA Awards – which weren’t telecast – were held in 1987 and hosted by Sir Elton John. The winners included INXS, Crowded House and John Farnham. Since that time, the ARIA Awards have developed into one of Australia’s pinnacle Awards ceremonies, forging careers and playing host to countless memorable moments and performances.

The show will also be telecast on TEN on 18 and 25 November at 10:30pm and ELEVEN on 20 and 27 November at 10:30am  – full TX details below.

The 30th Annual ARIA Awards will be broadcast on TEN on November 23 at 7.30pm.
