The South Australian Music (SAM) Awards, with support from the State Government, will be hosted by musician, media personality and double j radio host, Henry Wagons. The 2017 event, for which tickets are now on sale, will be held at the newly developed Thebby Lane (Thebarton Theatre), on Thursday 9th November.

Event MC Henry Wagons will bring his swagger and charm to guide Adelaide’s music industry through a long and sweaty roller coaster ride of celebration featuring 29 award presentations, 5 live performances, DJs, a feast under the stars in Thebby Lane and a rollicking 6-tap trailer of local craft beer courtesy of Little Bang Brewing Co.

“I’m really looking forward to a fantastic night, knitting together these 29 awards into one gargantuan celebration of South Australia’s finest!! It’ll be a night of nights… Bring it on!”
