​Celebrating Pacific Music

Thursday 21 August 2025
Due Drops Event Centre
Manukau Auckland
Aotearoa

​ The Pacific Music Awards Trust are dedicated to celebrating Pacific music and are looking forward to the 2025 Pacific Music Awards.  This year's celebration marks the 21st anniversary of the event.

 The 2025 finalists were officially announced on Monday 30 June at the Finalist Announcement event held at Mangere Arts Centre | Nga Tohu o Uneuku, Auckland.  We are so proud to be celebrating our highest number of finalists and first-time finalists in the history of the Pacific Music Awards.  This is a testament to the incredible depth of talent and the vibrant growth within the Pacific music community, as a new wave of artists rise into the spotlight.  At the event we also confirmed our sponsors for the awards and it is their support that allows us to produce the awards event to celebrate our Pacific music community.  We are so thankful and grateful to all our sponsors, funders and supporters.

All the artists confirmed as finalists are also eligible for the SunPix People's Choice Award - Best Pacific Artist.  The winner is solely determined by public vote, with voting available on our Poll page.  To learn more about our finalists and to help with voting for the People's Choice Award,
 go to our Finalists page. 

The Trust is also working on the Hiva Folau Vaka project, creating and recording new original songs in Pacific languages.  This is our legacy project and contribution to language revitalisation, with the first phase focusing on Vagahau Niue, Te Gagana Tokelau and Te Reo Maori Kuku Airani.   A compilation album of all the songs from the project will be released later in the year.
 

We will continue to provide updates for the 2025 Pacific Music Awards and look forward to the Pacific music and community celebration on Thursday 21 August at the Due Drop Events Centre.  We hope you can join us.
