New Stars Born at Christmas Unplugged 3.0
New Stars Born at the Arise Creative Champions Finale!
Last night, the spotlight wasn’t just bright — it blazed.
At the grand finale of Arise Creative Champions 1.0, a fresh constellation of talent emerged on stage. The event, hosted under the electrifying atmosphere of Christmas Unplugged 3.0, saw brilliant performances across six creative categories: music, dance, comedy, spoken word, acting, and fine arts.
From breathtaking dance routines to powerful spoken-word pieces, the stage was lit with the fire of emerging champions who are truly ready to take on the world. Audiences cheered, hearts soared, and dreams edged closer to reality.
But it wasn’t just applause that winners walked away with — they also received life-changing cash prizes:
🥇 ₦500,000 for the winners in each category
🥈 ₦300,000 for first runners-up
🥉 ₦200,000 for second runners-up
And there was more good news.
In a generous show of support, Dr. Anieti Udofia, Rt. Hon. Aniekan Umanah, and Mr. David Sergeant collectively stepped up with an extra ₦1 million to augment the prize pool — making this edition even more impactful for the talents involved.
With energy this high and support this strong, the future looks bright for everyone who took to that stage. Truly, new stars were born.
