    I know I should have reviewed it earlier, but I was waiting to receive the physical trophy. After more than 200 Awards and Nominations at I. F. Fs. here, at Apollo Global Music Awards it really felt like an Award in a real Festival. Receiving the physical award totally free of cost (and I know it's not cheap, I truly appreciate their effort and investment) means so much to all of us. Thank you.

    Participating in the Apollo Global Music Awards was an exciting and fantastic journey for us. Besides the excellent communication, we were very delighted with the award for “Best Song 2024” with the duet Vicino ma lontano. A heartfelt thank you!
    This festival is still young but nevertheless shows great professionalism. Really highly recommended!
    (Hospitality & Networking was not really relevant to this festival.)
