In an extravagant night held at the Marquis Events Place, Taguig City, last January 17th, BIGO Philippines Awards Gala 2025 honoured top creators and celebrities, and celebrated the finalists representing the Philippines at the BIGO Awards Gala 2026 in South Korea later this month.
BIGO Live, a leading global livestreaming platform, celebrated the country’s brightest creators and rising stars at the BIGO Philippines Awards Gala 2025—the platform’s biggest annual celebration of creativity, talent, and community. During the Gala, Marquis Events Place transformed into a fashion-forward stage, spotlighting Filipino creators for their innovation, authenticity, and impact within their local communities.
Bringing together over 350 creators, agencies, partners, users, and even including award winners, IKANGMO and Bright, while thousands of fans and viewers watched live on the BIGO Live App. With the theme, “Vogue Vision,” the celebration highlighted the vibrant fashion, entertainment, and community spirit of Filipino creators who share unique stories, humor, and culture through a global livestreaming audience.
“Bigo Live has transformed the way our Filipino community creates, discovers and connects in real-time. We are proud to honour over 22 local creators this year, reflecting the strong growth of our creator and user community. Beyond entertainment, Bigo Live serves as a digital home where Filipino culture and traditions are shared globally, particularly helping bridge the gap for our Filipino community overseas. We remain committed to empowering Filipino creators with a supportive ecosystem where creativity and connection can thrive safely,” said a Bigo Live Philippines spokesperson.
