AIR is thrilled to announce the addition of a new award to the Industry categories of its annual celebration of independent success.
Nominations are now open for the 2025 AIR Awards, which will be held on Thursday the 31st of July at the Adelaide Town Hall.
This year’s edition includes the Independent Mix, Studio or Mastering Engineer of the Year. This award will recognise the efforts of an Australian-based mix, studio or mastering engineer who worked on a member single, EP or Album released during the eligibility period (1st January 2024 to 31st December 2024). This award is the latest to join the industry categories of the AIR Awards alongside last year’s Producer and Music Video of the Year awards that recognised the producer and director of a significant AIR member release.

AIR Members can nominate an Australian service provider who worked on one of their eligible releases. The award will go to the engineer for the release nominated. Nominations for all categories in the 2025 AIR Awards are now open to all members and will close at midnight on Monday the 10th March 2025. AIR members will be emailed the link to nominate their eligible releases.
This year’s Indie-Con Australia Conference will be held at the Mercury Cinema from July 30th to 1st August 2025. As announced at last year’s awards, AIR will host A2IM’s Indie Week Australian Edition as part of its events. This is the first time that A2IM will be holding their conference outside of the United States and 2025 marks their 20th Anniversary.
