For 26 years, Unang Hirit (UH) has been the nation’s morning companion, bringing early news, fresh energy, and true public service to millions of Filipinos. As it celebrates its 26th anniversary, the shout rings louder than ever: GISING NA, UNANG HIRIT NA!
UH has never been just about waking people up. It’s also about waking Filipinos to hard truths that matter, from corruption to everyday concerns of communities. And this year’s anniversary celebration is bigger, braver, and more exciting than ever.
To mark this milestone, the kickoff of its 26th anniversary also serves as UH’s Christmas kickoff – the first day of Christmas on Unang Hirit, setting the tone for a week filled with holiday cheer.
Big Guests & Hostmates
UH begins its 26th year with major surprises – UNEXPECTED GUESTS and hostmates! This year, UH has already made waves with the introduction of new hostmates, and on its anniversary, even more stars are joining the morning party – different personalities, different vibes that the viewers won’t see coming.
Sorpresa Projects
UH has been rolling out exciting Sorpresa Projects leading up to the anniversary—projects that are real (not ghosts), transparent, and meaningful. It had Project Full Tank, which offered free fuel for tricycle drivers, and Project Free Palengke, a market where everything was free.
And for its 26th anniversary, the surprises grow even bigger with PASKO PROJECT—a special Christmas surprise for Cebu residents affected by Bagyong Tino. With many families still staying in evacuation centers and unsure of how they’ll celebrate Christmas, PASKO PROJECT aims to bring the season’s warmth, joy, and surprise right to them.
Here’s another clue for an upcoming surprise: SOMETHING TO DO WITH REMOTE CONTROL!
Christmas-Serye
Because it’s the holiday season, expect fun, and feel-good Christmas Serye gimmicks!
The Christmas Serye continues in Baguio, bringing stories of warmth, family, and the magic of Christmas straight from the country’s Summer Capital.
UH viewers should get ready for surprises and prizes! Tune in every weekday morning and celebrate 26 amazing years with the UH barkada. GISING NA… UNANG HIRIT NA!
