Bigo Live, leading global livestreaming platform, announced the winners of the first-ever Bigo Voice Music Fest, an online and offline music event connecting artists and music lovers across the Philippines. The platform’s inaugural live music event celebrated Filipino talents and strengthened the community through music by bringing the joy of music closer to the local and global community through live experiences happening in real-time.
The three talented rising stars Nikki Enriquez (Bigo id: NikkiEnriquez), Ronnel Abinal (Bigo id: White_Official28) and Lailanie Balmediano (Bigo id: primelovekisses) won 1st Place, 2nd Place and 3rd Place, respectively. They received prizes, including trophies and up to 200,000 Bigo Beans (the virtual currency on Bigo Live). During the event, audience members voted IKANG (Bigo id: ikangmo) as the “Most Impactful Icon of the Night.”
The awards night was attended by more than 200 fans and broadcasters and featured captivating live performances by the top 14 Bigo hosts who came from all over the Philippines.
The three artists emerged as winners after a series of online challenges on Bigo Live where more than 100 Philippines-based broadcasters battled it out across three categories: Solo, Duo and Family Livehouses. The top 14 finalists, ranked automatically based on the points collected during their livestreams, were invited to perform in Manila.
