The APRA Music Awards of 2021 are the 39th annual series, known as APRA Awards. The awards are given in a series of categories in three divisions and in separate ceremonies throughout the year: the APRA Music Awards, Art Music Awards and Screen Music Awards. The APRA Music Awards are provided by APRA AMCOS; nominations were revealed on 30 March 2021,[1][2][3] and the ceremony followed on 28 April 2021.[4][5] The Art Music Awards are jointly presented by APRA AMCOS and the Australian Music Centre (AMC).[6] The finalists were announced in July with the winners revealed on 9 September.[6][7][8] The Screen Music Awards are jointly provided by APRA and the Australian Guild of Screen Composers (AGSC) with the ceremony usually held in November, however, it was postponed to 22 February 2022.[9][10]
CEO of APRA AMCOS Dean Ormston announced the 2021 awards, "As Australia slowly begins recovering from the coronavirus pandemic, our industry is still largely on pause. After such a difficult year, our sincere hope is that we can stage a traditional live ceremony for the 2021 APRA Music Awards. A physical event would announce that we're in a new era, one where we can celebrate the Australian songwriters that have excelled despite one of the most challenging years in memory. We hope to see you there in the flesh."[4]
