"The 2020 ARIA Music Awards are the 34th Annual Australian Recording Industry Association Music Awards (generally known as ARIA Music Awards or simply The ARIAs) and consist of a series of awards, including the 2020 ARIA Artisan Awards, ARIA Hall of Fame Awards, ARIA Fine Arts Awards and the ARIA Awards. The ARIA Awards ceremony occurred on 25 November 2020, with Delta Goodrem as host. However, due to COVID-safe restrictions, it was without an audience and was broadcast from the Star Event Centre, Sydney on the Nine Network around Australia. In place of the usual Red Carpet event, a pre-show was broadcast from The Star's backstage and was hosted by Ash London and Mitch Churi. The pre-show had 16 awards presented ahead of the main ceremony. The ARIA CEO Dan Rosen had explained to Lars Brandle of Billboard, \"There will be an ARIA stage with real people on it, [it] just won't have a live audience in there.\" Nine Network's Brooke Boney announced the nominees on 13 October via ARIA's YouTube channel with Dean Lewis, Guy Sebastian, and Tones and I appearing. Tame Impala won the most awards with five from seven nominations, Lime Cordiale received the most nominations with eight and Sampa the Great received six nominations, while winning three. Archie Roach was inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame. During the ceremony he was joined on a stage in Warrnambool by family, friends and collaborators to sing, \"Took the Children Away\". A tribute performance of \"I Am Woman\", in memory of 2006 ARIA Hall of Fame inductee, Helen Reddy (1941\u20132020), was given by an ensemble of female singers backed by a virtual chorus. Sampa the Great won Best Hip Hop Release for the second year in a row. The category had been created after splitting Best Urban Release into two. Upon her win in the previous year, she was the first female person of colour to win a hip hop award at the ARIAs. However her acceptance speech \"about diversity and inclusivity\" was not broadcast as the network switched to a commercial. HuffPost's Alicia Vrajlal reported that various artists had criticised \"systemic racism\" in Australia and its music industry for years. At the 2020 ceremony Sampa the Great performed \"Final Form\", introduced by her rapping an acceptance speech which included reference to the hurt inflicted by the previous year's ARIA broadcast. Prior to this year's ceremony, Rosen had acknowledged his organisation had handled diverse artists poorly and admitted that \"we need to do better.\""@en . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
