38th Awit Awards powered by VIBE sets the stage for the ultimate celebration of Pinoy music excellence


HONORING icons, rising stars, and passionate fans, the 38th Awit Awards powered by VIBE elevates OPM to new heights through innovation, access, and engagement.


With 38 years of credibility and integrity, the Awit Awards stand as the country’s most prestigious recognition of musical excellence. 


This year, its partnership with MQuest Ventures’ (MQV) youth-driven platform Vibe strengthens that legacy—blending tradition with modern energy to deliver a fresh, inclusive, and #LEGIT celebration of Original Pilipino Music (OPM).


A collaboration between the Philippine Association of the Record Industry (PARI) and MQV, this year’s Awit Awards embodies a shared mission: to champion, elevate, and propel OPM forward. It’s a powerful fusion of tradition and innovation—uniting generations of artists and fans while keeping Filipino music vibrant and relevant.


Under the direction of industry legend Johnny “Mr. M” Manahan, the 38th Awit Awards powered by Vibe celebrates the richness of Filipino culture and identity while honoring the late OPM artists whose legacy continues to inspire today’s generation.


Vibe jocks Dylan Menor, Elijah Canlas, Joao Constancia, Ana Ramsey, Maxie Andreison, Ryle Santiago, Paulo Angeles, Kych Minemoto, and Queenay Mercado will host the awards night, opening the show with a special performance. They’ll be joined by Vibe’s Gen V correspondents, who will bring fans exclusive behind-the-scenes coverage and interviews with this year’s nominees.


The night will feature show-stopping performances from some of OPM’s finest artists, including Ben&Ben, Over October, Lola Amour, and Dionela.


The 38th Awit Awards will present honors across five major categories: Performance Awards, Genre Recording Awards, Special Recording Awards, Technical Achievement Awards, and the prestigious Grand Awards.


This year also introduces the Violet Carpet—a reimagined pre-show experience designed to bring fans closer to their favorite OPM artists. Moving beyond the traditional red carpet, the Violet Carpet celebrates creativity and connection, transforming the space into an interactive hub where artists and audiences can meet, share stories, and celebrate the movement that keeps Filipino music alive.


More than just a one-night celebration, the 38th Awit Awards powered by Vibe marks a movement that champions OPM’s power to connect, inspire, and uplift. By combining the Awit Awards’ trusted reputation with Vibe’s dynamic, youth-focused digital presence, the celebration extends far beyond the awards night, becoming a year-round experience for fans and supporters of Filipino music.


Guided by a panel of judges with decades of experience in performance, songwriting, production, and media, the Awit Awards continues to uphold its gold standard of legitimacy that recognizes not just popularity, but genuine artistry, innovation, and influence through Vibe.


Through this rigorous process, every winner of the 38th Awit Awards doesn’t just take home a trophy; they earn a lasting legacy in the history and future of OPM.


The grand awards night takes place on November 16, 2025, at the Meralco Theater. Fans nationwide can catch the live broadcast on TV5 or stream it on the official social media pages of Vibe PH, TV5, MQuest Ventures, and the Awit Awards.


Don’t miss the #LEGIT celebration of Filipino musical excellence!
