The 19th Annual Australian Recording Industry Association Music Awards (generally known as ARIA Music Awards or simply The ARIAs) were held on 23 October 2005 at the Sydney SuperDome at the Sydney Olympic Park complex, thus continuing the previous year's innovation of televising the awards on Sunday evening.[1][2] A varied cast of presenters included Merrick and Rosso (who opened the televised show), stand-up comic Dave Hughes, Gretel Killeen, David Hasselhoff, and Hamish & Andy.
On 14 July 2005 ARIA sought to create a separate standalone 'ARIA Icons: Hall of Fame' event as only one or two acts could be inducted under the old format due to time restrictions.[3] Six acts were inducted into the Hall of Fame in July with an additional act inducted at the following ARIA Music Awards in October.[3]

[edit]Judging academy
[edit]
In 2005, the generalist categories were determined by the "voting academy", which consisted of about 1000 representatives from across the music industry. Members of the academy are kept secret. Membership is by invitation only. An individual record company may have up to eight members on the academy. The only artists eligible to vote are winners and nominees from the previous year's awards. (See pie chart at right.)
