The spotlight was well deserved.
GMA Gala 2025 earned major recognition at the TikTok Live Awards 2025, taking home the Digital Spotlight Award — a clear nod to its massive online impact and cultural reach.
Last year alone, the annual gala racked up an incredible 1 billion views online, proving that the event isn’t just glamorous — it’s a digital powerhouse.
On stage to accept the honor were Roche Tuazon-Chavez, Senior Manager and Head of PR, Events, and Digital at Sparkle, and Caiel Pajarillo, Sparkle PR Manager.
Grateful and proud, Sparkle shared the milestone on Instagram:
“Thank you, TikTok Live Awards 2025, for honoring Sparkle GMA Artist Center and GMA Network with the ‘Digital Spotlight’ award for the GMA Gala.”
A Night of Stars — and Purpose
Held at the Manila Marriott Hotel in Pasay City, GMA Gala 2025 gathered a dazzling lineup of celebrities, artists, and industry leaders.
But beyond the red carpet and flashing cameras, the night carried a deeper meaning.
The gala also served a cause.
Through the event, GMA Network and Sparkle donated ₱2.5 million to the GMA Kapuso Foundation, helping fund its ongoing humanitarian and community projects.
It was a night that celebrated influence, impact, and heart — proving once again that when entertainment meets purpose, the spotlight shines even brighter.
