ARN has signed on as the exclusive radio partner for this year’s 62nd TV WEEK Logie Awards, bringing listeners all the glitz and glamour of Australian television’s night of nights from Queensland’s the Gold Coast.
The partnership will see an integrated campaign delivered across the KIIS Network and Hot Tomato and will feature exclusive celebrity interviews, ticket giveaways and prime red-carpet access.
Commenting on the partnership, Lauren Joyce, ARN’s chief connections officer said: “As Australia’s #1 radio network, we are excited to be partnering with Australia’s premiere television awards, the TV Week Logie Awards, and look forward to celebrating the amazing success of our local talent and the television industry. The partnership will see us harness the power of ARN’s Audiosphere across broadcast and digital audio as well as social to deliver exclusive Logies content, bringing our listeners even closer to the celebrities they love.”
As part of the deal, KIIS 1065’s Kyle & Jackie O will feature the hottest celebrity interviews in the lead up to the event, as well as exclusive access to all the stars the next morning live-on-air from their studio at The Star.
