1st National Indigenous Music Awards
August 19
The Amphitheatre, Darwin Botanic Gardens
Darwin, Australia
This year, Darwin’s annual Indigenous Music Awards is evolving from a local festival open to only Northern Territory-based musicians into a national event that celebrates the achievements of indigenous people living Australia-wide. The first edition of the National Indigenous Music Awards (NIMAs) is a peer-nominated award that recognizes "excellence, dedication, innovation and outstanding contribution to the Indigenous Music Industry." The NIMAs are held under the stars in the historic Darwin Amphitheater and will include performances from indigenous rock-bands Warumpi, Coloured Stone and No Fixed Address.
