The 2025 Asia Artist Awards Winners List are finally taking shape as the 10th anniversary ceremony gets underway live from the Kaohsiung National Stadium in Taiwan. Marking a decade of recognising Asia’s brightest, shining talents, this year’s AAA is shaping up as a grand two-day celebration, with main awards on December 6 and the ACON 2025 Festa set to spill over into December 7. With anticipation higher than it has ever been and a truly star-studded lineup across music and acting, the atmosphere inside is already electric.
Returning to host, IVE’s Jang Wonyoung captures attention in her usual elegance as the main MC for the fifth consecutive year. She is now joined by Lee Junho, who brings polished charm to the hosting team. The duo welcomed fans to a spectacular awards night, perfectly fitting the milestone 10th Asia Artist Awards 2025. This year, the red carpet saw idols and actors embracing formal yet toned-down styles; everything was in luxurious fabrics but with similarly muted palettes to the prestige of the occasion.
