Lifestyle Asia Thailand Celebrates Second Annual 50 ICONS Awards – Honouring the Nation’s Changemakers

On the evening of 19 August 2025, Lifestyle Asia Thailand hosted its second annual 50 ICONS Awards at 515 Victory in partnership with PRAKAAN Single Malt Whiskey, C2 Vitamin, Smeg, Iceland Spring Water, Infinite Mobile, Ducati, and Yuzu Omakase.  

Following its debut last year, which celebrated 50 Thai pioneers with notable influence in both local and international communities, this year’s award ceremony gathered a new edition of the industry’s icons, handpicked by Lifestyle Asia Thailand’s editorial team.  

The 2025 50 ICONS Awards celebrated 50 influential individuals under the theme Bridging Worlds, Breaking Boundaries, honouring their impact both within and beyond their respected industries.

After a red-carpet introduction, the evening commenced with opening remarks by the awards’ emcee, Ko Vasin. This year, the awards introduced a new list of categories including Global Icons, Entertainment Leaders, Rising Icons, Music Innovators, Creative Pioneers, Next-Gen Changemakers, and Culinary Masters. Some of the evening’s attendees included Bright Norraphat Vilaiphan, Baipor Thitiya Jirapornsilp, and Meen Nichakoon Khajornborirak, and star of White Lotus season 3 Tayme Maethi Thapthimthong

“Tonight, we bring together 50 inspiring individuals that drive meaningful impact in various forms, whether it’d be in entertainment, entrepreneurship, or culinary arts,” said Björn Rettig, CEO of BurdaLuxury. “These pioneers show what high-level passion, drive, and commitment can achieve, not just in a multifaceted industry but for a new generation of leaders. I am proud of Lifestyle Asia Thailand for continuing its mission to provide access to the good life while building a strong community of future-focused changemakers.” 

Following the opening remarks, the awards began with a fashion show presented by Hamilton, featuring Thai actress Yeena Salas, and Sanpetch Kunakorn. This was followed by the first award presentation round, which announced the winners for Creative Pioneers, Culinary Masters, Next-Gen Changemakers, and Entertainment Leaders.   

Next, a half-time performance took place by 2024 LSA 50 ICONS alumni and the recipient of last year’s Artist Award, Yourmood. 

The second round of awards announced the winners of the last three categories: Music Innovators, Global Icons, and Rising Icons.  

In addition to Lifestyle Asia Thailand’s partnerships with PRAKAAN Single Malt Whiskey, C2 Vitamin, Smeg, Iceland Spring Water, Infinite Mobile, Ducati, and Yuzu Omakase, the 50 ICONS Awards 2025 also featured PM Center.  

The event concluded with an exclusive DJ set by DJ Tiito, providing the opportunity for guests to enjoy the evening and network post-event.
