Must read

In news that should surprise nobody Sam Pang is officially announced to return as host of the Logie Awards.

Seven will screen the event from The Star Sydney on Sunday 18th August.

“Hosting the Logies last year was an amazing experience and I’m thrilled to return in 2024. Adding to the excitement Seven have also given me the greenlight to try new things this year so I’m really looking forward to displaying my underappreciated and severely undeveloped song and dance skills.”

Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Seven West Media, Jeff Howard, said: “Sam Pang brought unabashed showbiz back to the Logies last year. He played a big part in the show drawing its biggest audience since 2017 and reaching more than 3.6 million on Channel 7 and 7plus. We are delighted Sam is returning in August to host this year’s celebration of everything television.”

Nominations for the 64th TV Week Logie Awards will be announced on Sunday June 23rd.

This year’s event has seen key changes to award categories and the judging process.

Three awards will be presented as “Most Popular”, with nominees decided by a panel of independent industry experts, before being voted on by the Australian public: Gold Logie for Most Popular Personality on Australian Television, the Bert Newton Award for Most Popular Presenter and the Graham Kennedy Award for Most Popular New Talent.

The remaining 20 awards will be named “Best” to combine the previous “Most Popular” and “Most Outstanding” categories, determined by a combined score from a judging panel, viewing data and Australian public votes.
