pezzys

2017 gave us a lot. From memes to moments, us Aussies ate it the hell up and then some. And while some of the twelves month’s we’ve now put behind us weren’t, y’know, the greatest, there’s a truckload to be celebrated. That’s why PEDESTRIAN.TV, together with our pals Swarovski, have decided to recognise the best moments in Australian pop culture by throwing The Inaugural ‘PEZZYS’.

What the hell are the PEZZYS? Good question. Think of them as Australia’s answer to the Oscars, only entirely different. Jokes, we’ll be giving some love to stuff that went down in terms of cinema/TV, but that’s just the tip of it. There are actually eight categories (each with five nominees for a PEZZY) that’ll share the spotlight during the evening which, when viewed collectively, form quite the comprehensive cross-section of the happenings in Australian pop culture not too long ago.

So yeah, on Feb 28th, the red carpet will be rolled out at a chic warehouse in Rosebery and the PEZZYS will get cracking – and we would LOVE for a few of y’all incredible readers to come along for the ride.

If you’re lucky enough to score one of the five double passes up for grabs, you’ll be treated to a fab night of rubbing shoulders with some of Australia’s most prominent humans. Oh, and there will be free food and grog, which is always a massive plus. And thanks to Swarovski, there’ll be all sorts of epic stuff happening like an embellishment station, draping crystal structures and a crystallised media wall – a feature which will arguably be the greatest backdrop you’ll ever encounter for your ‘Gram content, right? If that all sounds like your kinda noise, then all you have to do is vote for your fave PEZZYS nominee in their respective category.

But before you do that, we should probs get you across who’s vying for one.

So, without further ado, here are the categories and nominees for…
