It’s been an intense journey, with the initial Top 30 Golden Ticket holders steadily whittled down. As eliminations continue, the pressure is mounting, bringing us closer to crowning the ultimate champion.

So, how will Australia’s next star be born, and how can you catch all the Australian Idol 2025 finale action? Here’s everything you need to know.

How is the Australian Idol winner chosen?

The Grand Finale week will see the remaining finalists battle it out for the title, with the winner determined entirely by public vote via SMS. 

That means it’s up to Australia to decide who takes home the crown!

What does the winner get?

The Australian Idol 2025 champion will walk away with $100,000 in prize money plus a recording contract with Hive Sound Studios.

Who won Australian Idol last year?

In 2024, it was 30-year old painter Dylan Wright who captured the nation’s heart and took home the title. The father of two grew up watching the show and made his dream a reality.

So, who will follow in Dylan’s footsteps? Australia will decide soon enough!

Australian Idol 2025 airs Sundays at 7:30pm and Mondays and Tuesdays at 7:00pm on Channel 7 and 7plus.
