Jimmy Barnes, John Farnham and Jessica Mauboy will be among the performers, while Flume, Illy and Troye Sivan lead the nominations.

Brisbane duo The Veronicas are set to host the event. 

Sharing a selfie to their Twitter account the twins joked that the organisers "must be crazy" to invite them to host.

"Bless them for giving us two microphones to say whatever we want," one half of the pair, Jessica Origliasso added on her own account.

"Who would let us this close to John Farnham unsupervised."

The singers got their very own emoji on Twitter for the evening, which appears when users use the hashtag #AriasTheVeronicas.
