AWA Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Koki Togashi), which operates the subscription-based music streaming service "AWA (Awa)", will hold the online event "International Singing Battle Vol.2" on Friday, July 10, 2026, featuring VSingers and singers from Japan and Taiwan. Today, we announced the second wave of additional artists.

"International Singing Battle Vol.2" will be held in "AWA Lounge," an online space provided by AWA that anyone can participate in for free. Popular VSingers and singers from Japan and Taiwan will compete in two teams. The winning team will be decided by support through flower chat and flower stamps on the day of the event, and will receive promotional rights in Japan and Taiwan, including outdoor advertising, featured playlist placements, and banner placements.

Additionally, we have prepared a project where listeners can win exclusive prizes such as limited voice packs and acrylic stands based on their support through flower chat and flower stamps. Furthermore, as part of the prizes, we have collaborated with "V-tamp," a service that allows creators to easily create and sell 3D digital merchandise using illustrations and voice, to offer digital acrylic stands.
