Highlights of the 2025 Sport Australia Hall of Fame Gala Dinner
It’s been just over two weeks since the Sport Australia Hall of Fame’s spectacular 40th Anniversary Induction and Awards Gala at Crown Palladium, Melbourne.
We extend our sincere gratitude to Crown for their generous sponsorship, which was instrumental in ensuring the success of the 2025 Gala. Their support enabled us to host all induction and awards formalities in a first-class environment across two memorable days.
We were honoured to welcome 100 Sport Australia Hall of Fame Members and Legends, along with dignitaries and representatives from Australia’s national sporting organisations, government and peak sporting bodies.
Staging an event of this magnitude requires an extraordinary effort, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to our production and event partner Jam TV, and our hosts Jason Richardson, Emma Freedman, Hamish McLachlan and Bruce McAvaney OAM. Their professionalism and passion helped create an evening that many Members have described as “the best event yet”. We extend a special thank you also to Stamping Ground for their expertise and invaluable support in managing our media announcements, red carpet, and all-encompassing PR activity.
Finally, we acknowledge and thank all of our valued partners for their support of this event: The Australian Sports Commission incorporating the Australian Institute of Sport, Crown, Deakin University, Sportscover, Harvey Norman, and the Australian Sports Museum at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).
