LISTENERS CHOICE

Our public poll involves getting your listeners to vote for you, for free, on our website. Last year over 220,000 individuals supported their favourite podcast, with those with the most passionate fans doing the best. Could that be your show?

Voting opens in August 2023. 

To qualify for the Listeners' Choice Award, podcasts must have been available by 1 June 2023 listed in the Apple Podcasts directory. The winner of the competition will be determined by the total number of valid votes received during the voting period. The winner of the vote will be announced during the Australian Podcast Awards in November.

GRAND PRIX

PODCAST OF THE YEAR

The highest honour of the night, with the winner chosen from the Gold winners of the categories above, so anyone who wins their category has a chance of winning this most prestigious of prizes.

Entries in this category will have outstanding presentation, original research or writing, appropriately superb sound design and boundary-pushing material that showcases the very best of what Australian podcasting can achieve.
