The Ninth Australian Recording Industry Association Music Awards (generally known as the ARIA Music Awards or simply The ARIAs) was held on 20 October 1995 at the Sydney Convention & Exhibition Centre.[1][2] There had been a 18-month gap since the previous award ceremony which was moved to be "closer to the business end of the music industry's year" and so reflect that year's works.[1][3] Presenters distributed 28 awards from 1060 eligible submissions.[3] Big winners for the year were Silverchair with five awards and Tina Arena with four, including Album of the Year and Song of the Year – both first time they were won by a female.[1][3]

In addition to previous categories, the former category Best Pop/Dance Release was split into Best Pop Release and Best Dance Release.[3] Another new category Best World Music Album was also presented for the first time.[1][3] The ARIA Hall of Fame inducted: The Seekers.[1]
