Tame Impala are among the nominees for the 2026 ARIA Awards, whose winners are announced at Sydney’s Hordern Pavilion on 18 November 2026. The project has eight nominations across album, song, pop, dance and craft categories.
Tame Impala’s eight ARIA nominations set the November date
The ARIA nomination list names Tame Impala among the nominees for Album of the Year, Best Solo Artist and Best Alternative Release. Further entries cover Best Pop Release, Best Dance/Electronic Release and Song of the Year. The nominations also include Best Engineered Release and Best Produced Release for Kevin Parker.
The ceremony is scheduled for Wednesday 18 November 2026 at the Hordern Pavilion in Sydney. ARIA says the programme spans 29 categories, with the awards presented during the 40th anniversary show. The event will be broadcast on 10 and streamed on Paramount+.
Tame Impala brings Deadbeat into the ARIA field
Tame Impala brings the project’s current album, Deadbeat, into several of the nominated fields. That record appears in Album of the Year, Best Solo Artist and Best Alternative Release. The song Dracula is listed for Best Pop Release and Song of the Year, while Kevin Parker is named in two craft categories. The spread places an album, a song and production work by the same project within one ARIA programme.
ARIA also lists Afterthought in Best Dance/Electronic Release. Columbia Records and Sony Music are identified beside the Tame Impala entries in the nomination lists. That pairing links the ceremony’s categories to both the project’s recordings and Parker’s production work.
Tame Impala remains a Perth-led psychedelic pop project
Official Charts describes Tame Impala as an Australian psychedelic pop project led by multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter and producer Kevin Parker. The profile places its beginnings in Perth and records a catalogue that includes Innerspeaker, Lonerism, Currents, The Slow Rush and Deadbeat. This identity connects the ARIA listing with both the Tame Impala name and Parker’s production credit for the nominated album.
At the awards, the project appears in both recording categories and the artisan categories for engineering and production. That combination gives the November programme two angles on the release: its songs and its studio-making.
