ASTRA Awards
The ASTRA Awards were the annual awards for the Australian subscription television industry. According to the Australian Subscription Television and Radio Association, the awards "recognise the wealth of talent that drives the Australian subscription television industry and highlight the creativity, commitment and investment in production and broadcasting."
The ASTRA Awards were instituted in 2003, but were discontinued after November 2015, when ASTRA announced the awards would be folded into the annual AACTA Awards.
