ACRA radio awards announced: Did your favourite hosts win?

The Australian Commercial Radio Award winners were announced at a glitzy ceremony on the Gold Coast on Saturday night, and we have to say: there were some surprises.

The top awards were given to many of the same people that won in years past, with 2013 winners Ross Stevenson and John Burns, Neil Mitchell, Brendan Jones and Amanda Keller, and Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O winning gongs.

The ACRA awards were hosted by actor and comedian Stephen Curry, and for the fifth time, The Kyle and Jackie O Show was named best on-air FM team. Are they really your favourites?

The best on-air AM team, was awarded for the fourth time to 3AW’s Ross Stevenson and John Burns.

Continuing 3AW’s winning streak, Neil Mitchell, 3AW’s morning host scored the win for best current affairs presenter, reports SMH.

In a win for baby boomers, Amanda Keller and Brendan Jones got an ACRA for their weekly My Generation show.

Jeremy Cordeaux, veteran broadcaster and award-winning journalist, was inducted into the Hall of Fame after more than five decades in the industry.

The awards are judged by representatives from all radio networks and from the advertising, marketing and engineering industries.
