The 2020 FPRA Awards has been postponed and will be held on the 8th of May 2021.
While making the announcement the Fiji Performance Rights Association Limited Chairman Eremasi Tamanisau says COVID-19 forced them to moved the event to next year.
He says the venue of the Awards will not change and will be held at the Grand Pacific Hotel.
Tamanisau says all the 15 Awards will be given in two categories, one for 2019 and one for 2020.
