Nominations are accepted from producers, presenters and other volunteers within the sector for programming produced within the eligibility period of each ceremony. Entries are judged entirely by a panel decided by the event organisers; previously, the Viewers' Choice Award allowed for Channel 31 viewers to nominate their favourite programs in a given year.

Between 2004 and 2010 the awards were held annually – first at RMIT University's Storey Hall, and later at the Deakin EdgeatFederation Square. In 2014, the awards were revived to honour 20 years of community television in Brisbane and Melbourne,[1] and were held again in 2019 to honour 25 years of C31 Melbourne.
