The event was organized by Digicel to allow Haitian artists to promote their talent said Tatiana, the master of ceremonies for the event. The artists performed various dances, and songs to entertain the 900 or so audience members in attendance at the landmark Rex Theatre on Champs de Mars.

Previous talent shows took place throughout Haiti, with the last ones being in Port-au-Prince where the finalists compete for the grand prize.

Digicel notes that “The talent show is the biggest event that we put on throughout the year,” the event is televised, and the home viewing audience gets to participate by voting for their favorite artist by phone.

Each week a contestant is eliminated according to votes cast by the audience the previous week. Vote for your favorite artist here on Haitixchange.com! We will be following the event each weekend.
