TNT has launched a nationwide online karaoke competition powered by TNT 5G called SAYAOKE, connecting aspiring singers from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao through live, real-time singing battles.
SAYAOKE aims to showcase Filipino talent by hosting live auditions, mentoring sessions, and real-time singing competitions streamed directly on TikTok Live.
“Connectivity is an important part of how Filipinos experience entertainment, pursue their passions, and connect with one another. With SAYAOKE, we are bringing this to life through a nationwide competition that connects aspiring singers and audiences in real time,” said Lloyd R. Manaloto, FVP and OIC at Smart Communications, Inc.
To make participation accessible to aspiring singers nationwide, the competition kicks off with online auditions hosted on TNT’s official platform, the Vivaoke app, which features an extensive library of Original Pilipino Music (OPM) from Viva. Contestants can record their entries from anywhere in the country and submit their audition videos upon registration through the TNT SAYAOKE site.
From the submitted entries, 48 finalists will be selected to undergo an online bootcamp complete with vocal coaching and mentoring sessions to prepare them for the live competition.
Following the bootcamp, contestants will advance to live weekly showdowns powered by TNT SAYAOKE Birit Booths deployed nationwide, offering them a chance to win PHP 300,000 in cash each weekly showdown.
Non-competing TNT subscribers can actively participate in SAYAOKE by using voting credits, earned through select TNT promos, to vote during live shows. Subscribers can also participate in campaign giveaways offering prizes such as cash rewards, 5G smartphones, motorcycles, e-bikes, and more.
