The 58th Annual TV Week Logie Awards were held on Sunday 8 May 2016 at the Crown Palladium in Melbourne, and broadcast live on the Nine Network.[1] Public voting for the Best Award categories began on 16 November 2015 and ended on 17 January 2016.[2] Nominations were announced on 3 April 2016 along with the winners of the Outstanding Newcomer Awards.
It was announced on 4 November 2015 that the 2016 Logie Awards would reinstate the Logie Award for Best Factual Program, as well as a new publicly-voted category for Best News Panel or a Current Affairs Program. Two new industry-voted awards were also given, Logie Award for Most Outstanding Supporting Actor and Actress. Additionally, all publicly-voted category awards changed their title from "Most Popular" to "Best Awards".[3]
Digital Content
The 2016 ceremony will also be the first to accept nominations for original Australian content produced by or airing on streaming media such as Netflix, Presto and Stan.[1] Comedy series No Activity, distributed by Stan, earned 3 nominations, thus becoming the first program premiering on a streaming service to earn a Logie nomination.[4]
