The 2024 APRA Silver Scroll Awards celebrated songwriting excellence with a ceremony at Wellington's St James Theatre on Tuesday night.
Two waiata scored top prizes, with Anna Coddington winning the Silver Scroll Award for 'Kātuarehe' and Jordyn With A Why taking out the Maioha Award for her waiata 'He Rei Niho'.
The artists dazzled at the ceremony and at the red carpet - here are some of the best looks from the night.
