All the best celeb looks from the AACTA Awards red carpet
Margot Robbie, Abbie Chatfield and Rebel Wilson were among the big stars on the red carpet for the 2024 AACTA Awards.
Australian film and television’s biggest night, the AACTA Awards, will take place on the Gold Coast this evening in a ceremony hosted by Aussie acting export Rebel Wilson.
One highlight to look out for: Arguably the biggest Aussie star in the world right now, Margot Robbie, returning home to receive a special Trailblazer award for her efforts in Hollywood.
Aussie Oscar-winner Cate Blanchett and legendary US film director Ron Howard are among the other A-list guests expected to attend.
The 2024 AACTA Awards Ceremony will be broadcast on Channel 10 at 7pm AEDT Saturday. A special director’s cut including all awards from the ceremony will be available at 7:30pm on Sunday 11 February on BINGE and Foxtel On-Demand and on AACTA TV.
