Welcome to the Third Tibetan Music Awards.
The preparations are all
complete and we are ready to embark on the presentation ceremony of
the awards. We have an interesting line-up of artistes to perform in
the event. Wait for our story from the event, which will be up as
soon as our reporter finishes it.
There are total 16 awards to be presented in categories listed in the
Nominations page.
Unlike the previous years of a grand jury deciding the winners from a
list of nominations voted by the public, we have decided to award each
category receiving maximum number of votes the winning prize.
The voting was conducted through Tibet Times newspaper and online voting
through musictibet.com in May.
The event will start at 7 p.m. A ticket is for Rs 100.00, available
at gate. Ask a friend to save a brochure!
