FAQs
- What is the difference between the AACTA Awards Industry Gala and the AACTA Awards Ceremony?
In 2027, AACTA is presenting over 50 AACTA Awards to the incredible creatives in the Australian Screen Industry. We present these at two distinct ceremonies:
The Industry Gala recognises the talented craftspeople, often working behind the scenes, who make your favourite movies, tv shows and short form content
The AACTA Awards presented by BINGE is a broadcast ceremony that recognises the best in performance and full productions
Both events are feature red carpet arrivals, pre and post event food and drinks and an incredible after party. If you want to know which awards are presented at each show, click here.
- Can I just attend the Official After Party presented by Screen Queensland?
No. AACTA does not sell After Party only tickets. Access to the After Party is only granted to guests who attended the Industry Gala Awards show.
- I'm a Nominee. How do I get tickets?
The nominations for the 2027 AACTA Awards will be announced in early December, at which point all nominees will be invited to the event at which their award is being presented. Your invitation will be sent from ticketing@afi.org.au. You may also purchase additional tickets to the event.
- I'm an AACTA member. How do I access my discount when purchasing tickets?

Note: Please allow 1 - 2 business days after signing up for a new membership or renewing an existing membership for your code to be active.
- What is the difference between Stalls and Balcony seats?
As the AACTA Awards events are presented in a theatre, guests are seated in rows. the 'stalls' section are those on the ground floor of the theatre, and the 'balcony' section are on the level above.
Note: Stalls seating is prioritised for our AACTA Awards nominees so that they can easily make it to the stage should they win. This means a very limited number of stalls seats are on sale to non-nominees. If you want to attend the ceremony but are not a nominee or linked to a nominated production, we recommend you purchase a balcony seat as the view is just as great and you receive the same access to all the event features.
Access Note: Access to the balcony section of the theatre is via a U-shaped staircase with no step free access available. If you require step-free access to this event, please contact ticketing@afi.org.au and we can arrange this for you.
