The 12th edition of the BIAF came through, no misses, just moments
Last night, the city of Beirut, Lebanon, buzzed as it hosted the 12th edition of the Beirut International Awards Festivals, spotlighting the Arab icons we know, love, and can't stop talking about.
It took place on August 2nd-3rd at Nejmeh Square in Downtown Beirut. This year's edition was dedicated to the legendary Lebanese poet and philosopher Saiid Akl, paying tribute to his cultural legacy and lasting impact on Lebanese identity.
Things kicked off with a ceremony and panel talk on Day 1, where the BIAF 2025 talent gathered to share their journeys and career milestones. And a special performance by Jordanian artist Yazan El Saeed.
Night two kicked off with the iconic red carpet hosted by Christina Karam – it was the moment, with celebs and icons serving major looks. The fashion? Iconic. The energy? Off the charts.
After the red carpet, the awards ceremony kicked off in full glam, hosted by Actor Nicolas Mouawad, with stars like Daniella Rahme, Cynthya Karam, Maya Diab, Marwan Moussa, and Motasem Al Nahar all taking home wins.
If you want in on what exactly went down last night, then you can catch it all on YouTube.
