Himig Handog is a multimedia songwriting and music video competition in the Philippines based in Quezon City. The organization is operated by the ABS-CBN Corporation and Star Records, the music subsidiary of ABS-CBN. The contest ran from 2000 to 2003 and was later revived on 2013. The theme of the contest has been based around love songs ever since 2002.[1]

History

Himig Handog was first established in 2000. To date, it only had held six competitions which were in 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2013 and in 2014. Each year, the title and theme of the contest changes. In 2000, the contest was titled as Himig Handog sa Bayang Pilipino which was held on October 1. During the second, third and fourth contests' themes and titles were Makabagong Kabataan, Love Songs and Love Songs 2 respectively.[2]

From 2001 to 2003, only three songs were rewarded with varying amounts of financial incentives(cash prizes) depending on which entry came in first, second, and third.[3] However in 2013, the amount of incentives given were raised to five to make up a 'Top Five'. Other award categories were also introduced during this year. Also, it introduced a music video contest where participating tertiary institutions across the country were given the challenge of producing and directing the music videos for each song entry under a certain budget.[4]
