COVID Pauses Upcoming National Indigenous Music Awards
Historical editorial brief

Newly written from the organiser source below. The original article body was not included in the available copy.

The National Indigenous Music Awards had been scheduled for 7 August 2021 at Darwin Amphitheatre. The organisers postponed the in-person event amid COVID-19 restrictions affecting travel and gatherings across Australia.

The awards later took a different form. NIMAs partnered with triple j and its First Nations program Blak Out for a two-hour special on 14 November 2021, with exclusive performances and recognition of First Nations music.

This is a historical update about the 2021 program. The original FOLDBACK report is not available in this site copy; the organiser’s later announcement records how the event proceeded.
