Next year, ASP will celebrate 30 years of crowning World Champions. The awards
ceremony will be held at Gold Coast, QLD, Australia and will have a new format.
The 2012 awards was the first to have a LIVE broadcast. 2013 will continue with
this format and will be a more content-focused event. One of the major changes
will be a theater-style seating rather than a banquet style. There will be
plenty of videos and world-class hosts and musical artists.
