The Silver Logie for Most Popular Presenter is an award presented annually at the Australian TV Week Logie Awards. The award recognises the popularity of a presenter, co-host or judge of an Australian program.

It was first awarded at the 45th Annual TV Week Logie Awards, held in 2003 when the award was originally called Most Popular Presenter.[1] It was briefly renamed Best Presenter (2016–2017).[2] From 2018, the award category name was reverted to Most Popular Presenter;[3] in 2022, its name was changed to Bert Newton Award for Most Popular Presenter in honour of the late Bert Newton, who was a 19-time Logie Awards host, Logie Hall of Fame inductee and four-time Gold Logie winner.

The winner and nominees of Most Popular Presenter are chosen by the public through an online voting survey on the TV Week website.[4] Rove McManus holds the record for the most wins, with seven.
