ABS-CBN’s Himig 11th Edition, the country’s biggest songwriting competition, is drawing to a close but fans can still show their support for their favorite finalists by voting for them to take home the “TikTok Choice Award” and other special awards until Monday (March 15).
Like the other special recognitions, the recipient of #HimigTikTokChoiceAward will be determined based on the most number of votes received by the winning entry.
To vote, just log in to your TikTok account, go to https://bit.ly/2N1B4L1, find the finalist of your choice, and click ‘vote’. Each TikTok user can vote thrice a day but every vote should be allotted for three different finalists.
Meanwhile, the #Himig11thEdition’s finals night—to be hosted by Jayda, Jona, and Edward Barber with guest performances by OPM’s finest Erik Santos, Kyla, Jona, Jayda, Sheryn Regis, Nyoy Volante, Bugoy Drilon, Elha Nympha, Jed Madela, Jolina Magdangal and new breed of singer-songwriters SAB, Lian Kyla, Trisha Denise, and Angela Ken—will premiere via livestream on KTX.ph at 7 PM on March 21 (Sunday), with tickets still available for purchase here for only P199.
