[edit] Themes
In 2005 they had a circus theme to go with the location at Luna Park. At the show they had a circus tent set up and when awards were given clowns were shown doing things that related to the award (e.g. Best Group had clowns holding a net ready to catch the other clown jumping from a high place).
The theme for 2006 was the budgie smuggler. During the lead up to the show MTV Australia would show Ads where men would talk about their budgie smugglers and how they like to wear them and so on. The logo for the show how ever did not reflect this theme.
The Ad Campaign for the 2007 awards features various singers and groups unrolling their own red carpets in different locations around Australia.
