The GQ Australia Men of the Year Awards have been cancelled for 2025 following the Bondi Beach terrorist attack that left 16 people dead on Sunday.
The glamorous event was scheduled to go ahead on December 17th at the Overseas Passenger Terminal in Sydney.
However, on Monday the magazine's official Instagram page announced that the ceremony was cancelled.
'In light of the horrific attacks against the Jewish community at Sydney's Bondi Beach, the 2025 GQ Men of the Year awards will not be taking place on Wednesday this week, as planned,' the post read.
'Our thoughts are with the victims, their families and anyone who has been affected by this tragedy.'
Potential attendees were additionally notified of the cancellation via email on Monday afternoon.
The GQ Australia Men of the Year Awards have been cancelled for 2025 in light of the Bondi Beach terrorist attack that left 16 people dead.
It's the second major event on Sydney's glittering social calendar that has been scrapped in light of the massacre.
The organisers behind the Sydney premiere of Sam Worthington's new blockbuster Avatar: Fire and Ash have also cancelled the event.
A spokesperson said that the red-carpet screening would not go ahead out of respect for the victims of Sunday's terror attack at Bondi Beach.
The Hollywood star, 49, and his wife, Lara Worthington, 38, were expected to attend the glitzy event, which was originally set for Monday night at the IMAX theatre in Darling Harbour.
Titanic director James Cameron, who helmed the new Avatar sequel, was also expected to show for the premiere alongside Australian actor Brendan Cowell.
Scheduled media interviews with the stars and Cameron have also been cancelled.
'Out of deep respect for the victims of the Bondi shooting, the planned Avatar: Fire and Ash premiere event today in Sydney has been cancelled,' a spokesperson for the event said in a statement.
'Our hearts are with the community, the victims, their families and loved ones.'
Organisers have yet to confirm that the premiere will be rescheduled, the Daily Telegraph reported on Monday.
It comes after two men stepped out of a vehicle on Campbell Parade, near Bondi Pavilion, and opened fire about 6.47pm on Sunday.
Two heavily armed men, allegedly Naveed Akram, 24, and his 50-year-old father Sajid Akram stood on a pedestrian footbridge and opened fire with military-grade weapons into crowds of locals, holidaymakers and families.
So far 16 people have died, including alleged gunman Sajid Akram, while a further 42 people, including four children, were taken to hospital.
Police confirmed 14 people had died at the scene, while two others died overnight in hospital, with the victims ranging in age between 10 and 87 years old.
As of Monday, there were five people in critical condition, including two police officers - a constable and a probationary constable who was repeatedly shot in the face.
Naveed Akram is in hospital under police guard after being shot by police.
