The 39th Awit Awards are an upcoming Philippine music awards ceremony which will honor the best recordings, compositions, and artists from 1 January 2025 to 31 December 2025,[1][2] presented by the Philippine Association of the Record Industry (PARI), to be held in September 2026. It is the 39th ceremony which will be celebrated at the SM Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay City[3] and a host has yet to be announced. The ceremony follows on from the 38th Awit Awards, which was aired on TV5.

The annual event will recognize outstanding achievements and excellence in Original Pilipino Music (OPM). Creative and show direction will be led by directors Paolo Valenciano and Nico Faustino.[4]

Background

On 14 April 2026, PARI unveiled its roadmap for the future of the local music industry in a press conference held at Viva Café, led by its new president Enzo Valdez, who presented a comprehensive plan designed to benefit both industry stakeholders and music fans alike.[1][2][3][4] To ensure a world-class production, PARI has partnered with Go Live Asia,[3] a professional livestreaming company.

Program changes

  • The Awit Awards Night is scheduled for September at the SM Mall of Asia Arena, while the Dangal ng Musikang Pilipino Awards will take place in October at the historic Goldenberg Mansion in Malacañang Palace.[5] Lifetime Achievement Award will be united as part of the Dangal ng Musikang Pilipino Award.[4]

Criteria amendments

  • PARI said that this edition will be the most expansive and inclusive edition to date which, for the first time, opens entries to non-member artists, allowing independent musicians and their managers to submit nominations across categories.[2]

Category changes

  • Further elevating this year’s awards is the introduction of three new major categories: Best New Artist, Songwriter of the Year and Producer of the Year.[4]

Voting amendments

  • A key innovation was introduced through the creation of the Awit Voting Community (AVC), a body tasked with selecting final nominees and winners. Eligible AVC members will include Awit Awards judges and finalists from the past five years, as well as designated representatives from PARI’s corporate and associate member labels—ensuring a credible, experienced, and representative voting body.[3]
