Premios Ídolo: the growth of a ceremony that recognizes the digital world
The Idol Awards continue to establish themselves as one of the main gatherings within the Argentine digital ecosystem. Its aim is to recognize those who develop new ways of communicating, entertaining, and influencing from the platforms.
The 2025 edition reached notable figures, with over 3.2 million people reached, 6.3 rating points, and a 42% share on open television, according to data released by the organizers.
The competition originated in Spain in 2022 by initiative of Aida Domènech, known as Dulceida, with the purpose of professionalizing the social media industry and highlighting its cultural and economic impact. Argentina was the first international sede of the format: the first local edition was held in 2024 by LUZU TV and, in 2025, the event arrived on Telefe, expanding its reach to open television and to audiences across the country.
