Logies 2026 winners, nominees: Full list of the 66th Annual TV Week Logie Awards winners including Robert Irwin, Ally Langdon, Jelena Dokic and more
Updated ,first published
Australia’s best and brightest television stars have zipped up their finery and taken to Sydney’s The Star Casino for the small screen’s night of nights, which has roped Robert Irwin in for a seemingly impossible mission: making the 66th TV Week Logie Awards cool to the TikTok generation.
Whether he succeeds in his task remains to be seen. But if his Oscars-style opening number and surprisingly biting opening monologue – no one, not Dave Hughes, Karl Stefanovic, and not even Irwin’s former show I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! was safe – is any indication, then we are in good hands.
Peking Duk let slip one strategy the 22-year-old Wildlife Warrior would be trying later in the broadcast – and it was not showing off his abs à la Dancing with the Stars US. (Though there was an Australia Zoo khaki uniform unveiled after a Velcro suit was ripped away).
“We’re performing tonight, and we’ve got Robert Irwin doing the worm on stage, which feels damn good,” musician Adam Hyde told this masthead on the red carpet.
Bandmate Reuben Styles also revealed a secret Irwin told them while they were rehearsing – yes, he would be channelling his late father Steve Irwin and will “probably put a snake on someone”. That prophecy came true, with Irwin draping a large python around comedian Luke McGregor’s neck. McGregor’s face, as we’re sure anyone’s would, went extremely red. How will this affect the event’s insurance premiums next year?
Irwin has taken over the gig from three-time host Sam Pang, who, like Irwin, is nominated for a Gold Logie. Read on for the full list of winners and nominees for the 66th TV Week Logie Awards, which will be updated tonight as they’re announced.
