The Filipino Music Awards was established with a purpose of celebrating achievement and artistic excellence. More than awarding the songs, albums, and artists who have topped charts and broken records, the FMAs aim to spotlight greater Filipino music and musicians from all walks of life, and that is reflected in the award show’s 19 categories spread across four main category groups.
From genre-specific standout tracks to music and artists that have captured the attention of the public and more, the 2026 FMAs honored a wide swath of musicians and songs across the industry, with SB19 taking home the most awards of the evening at three, with BINI and Skusta Clee and Flow G following close behind with two each. Below, see who came out on top in each category as determined by the Filipino Music Awards’ nomination and voting jury.
