The results are IN!
Thank you to all who arrived in their fancy beautiful formal wear, especially those orange willowy clouds, (due to Second Life’s gridwide issues – UGH). We still managed to pull off a fantastic show despite the challenges that arrived at our virtual community’s doorstep. Before we put the video on our youtube channel we WILL re-record the performances so those who were orange clouds can be viewed in their full and carefully selected formal wear and costumes.
For now, we’d like to applaud the cast once again. They were STELLER! Aren’t we just the luckiest that we have such talent, charisma and stardom right here in our community?

Who and What are the Avi Choice Awards?!
It’s ALWAYS a great time to recognize, applaud, appreciate, embrace and celebrate our virtual community with the Avi Choice Awards. THANK YOU to our sponsors who join together and support this endeavor. You are so appreciated.. we truly couldn’t do this without you. Please visit our Sponsor Spotlight page to learn more about these very special Second Life businesses and residents!
What are the Avi Choice Awards?
- They are Community-Driven Awards designed to give Second Life’s residents a voice, allowing them to nominate and vote for their favorite individuals and groups in a broad spectrum of categories, that reflect the diverse and creative landscape of Second Life. The awards serve as a platform to highlight and appreciate the hard work, innovation, and talent of creators and participants within the virtual world. They focus on the virtual community, celebrating a wide range of talents from art and fashion to music and events, and will culminate in a live awards show to honor the favorites. The Avi Choice Awards are not about choosing the best, but rather giving a nod and deserved applause to some old and new favorites.
Here’s how it works:
- Nomination Phase: Residents nominate candidates for various categories divided between two themes, Environment or Experience. To nominate someone, if you could add their SL legacy name and avatar key, it would be helpful in verifying your nomination. Thank you! NOTE: Any nominations for a member of the Avi Choice staff will be discarded (this does NOT include show presenters, performers, broadcasters, sponsors, advertisers, as they are eligible for nomination).
- Voting Period: After nominations close, a compiled and consolidated list of finalists will be presented for community voting. Second Life residents will be able to vote one time per avatar in one or all of the categories. Efforts will be made to guard against cheating.. we know there are means. But, we’re hoping people will dig deep and decide to be genuinely interested in the fairness of all residents getting to voice for their favorites. Please do not cheat .. it’s selfish.. it’s ugly and it’s just not okay.
- Awards Ceremony: The event culminates in an awards show, where the resident’s choices are announced and recognized, with live performances during an amazing show available to the virtual community.
the Significance:
- Recognition for Virtual Creators: The awards provide a significant form of recognition for artists, designers, musicians, and other creators who built their careers and communities within Second Life.
- Engagement and Community: The awards foster a sense of community and engagement by bringing residents together to celebrate and support these favorite virtual personalities and brands.
- Support for Charity: The awards shows benefit a non-profit or charity with proceeds from kiosk donations going to a good cause.
the Specifics:
There will be two shows a year.. two opportunities to applaud your favorites. The expected month for each show is December and April. December will feature those categories that fall under the ‘Environment’ theme while April will feature the ‘Experience’ categories.
The next show will take place on April 25, 2026 at 1pm SLT and will feature the EXPERIENCE aspects of Second Life.
