COULD the ARIA Awards have shifted to a Wednesday night to accommodate a special guest appearance by Katy Perry?

The American superstar has a night off in Sydney during her epic Prismatic tour and loves an awards ceremony.

ARIA bosses confirmed today the awards will return to The Star Event Centre and be held on November 26.

And now the record labels begin the intense lobbying to get their acts on to the stage not only as nominees but performers.

There will be a massive push to bring home some of the Australian acts who have taken the world by storm in the past 12 months including Sia, Iggy Azalea and 5 Seconds Of Summer.

Electronic soul man Chet Faker, who has spent most of the year touring the world, has confirmed he has booked the ARIAs into his November calendar.

It has been a strong year for emerging local talent on the ARIA charts with Justice Crew and Sheppard among those storming to No.1 on the singles charts.

Faker, Hilltop Hoods, Jimmy Barnes, Vance Joy, Amity Affliction, Taylor Henderson and Angus and Julia Stone are among the Australian artists to top the album charts this year.

Music fans will again decide who will win Song Of The Year, Best International Artist — which Perry would be a strong contender to win — Best Australian live Act and Best Video. Voting for those awards and the nominees for the other categories will be announced on October 7.
