Where did the year go?! The Age Music Victoria Awards return with their 12th annual event - WHOA. The Awards are part of Melbourne Music Week - and they'll conclude with The After Party - a MASSIVE showcase of Victoria's very diverse talent. Who doesn't love a good party?

Limited tickets are available now for The After Party at 170 Russell at just $30 + BF - that means booking fee, not plus boyfriend OR best friend (they'll have to get their own tickets)! You can feel good about buying your ticket, as once again, $5 from every ticket sold at this year's Awards will be donated to The Age Music Victoria's charity partner Support Act Limited. They've received nearly $50,000 from the event over the last ten years, so keep up the good work legends!

The big question has been - 'who's playing The After Party?' - and now WE HAVE ANSWERS! Your ticket gets you live sets from recent Glastonbury-goers Harvey Sutherland & Bermuda, local post-punks Gold Class, and rising powerhouse trio Cable Ties.

As tradition goes, the evening will also include the famous EG Allstars Band (featuring members of the Rockwiz Orchestra) performing some of the best songs of the year fronted by a prime cut of rotating musical talent including Josh Teskey (The Teskey Brothers), Archie Roach, Gretta Ray, Ella Thompson (GL), Michelle Nicolle, Birdz, Mojo Juju and Jim Lawrie (Performing Big Smoke), as well as DJ sets by MzRizk.

Nominees are announced and public voting opens on The Age website from 13 October to 10 November 2017, so keep your eyes peeled for that - but in the meantime, grab your tickets and secure your spot at The After Party. We expect to see awardees, nominees, music industry pro's and fans alike on the d-floor havin' a cheeky little boog to celebrate all things Victoria music.
