Veteran Hong Kong star Chow Yun Fat will headline this year's Star Awards as a presenter. This marks the 70-year-old's second time at the ceremony, since his first stint in the inaugural edition in 1994.

Yun Fat married Singaporean Jasmine Tan, 65, in 1987.

Star Awards, which is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, will see more than 200 international and local stars gracing the stage.

Award-winning Hong Kong actor Sean Lau, 61, will also be attending the ceremony. This will be his second time at the event since 2000, where he presented the Top 10 Most Popular Female Artistes award with his wife, former actress Amy Kwok.

Veteran local host Guo Liang, 54 will host the show for the 16th time. Local actress Chantalle Ng, 30, who is nominated Best Actress for her performance in Hope Afloat (2024), will also be making her hosting debut at the show.

Singaporean singer Kit Chan, 52, who has three Star Awards Best Theme Songs win to her name, will also be taking the stage that evening, where she would be singing the soundtracks to memorable series over the years.

The red-carpet event will be presented by local hosts Dennis Chew, Herman Keh, Hazelle Teo and Denise Camillia Tan and they will speak to artistes on their pre-show nerves and experiences. Beauty publications Icon and Nuyou's fashion editors will also be giving live commentaries on the red-carpet styles.

The action continues backstage as well with a livestream show with Yes 933 The Daka Show's DJs Jeff Goh, Chen Ning and Gao Meigui, where they will give audiences access to behind-the-scenes and unscripted moments as the artistes prepare for the evening.
