## What is the every-1 Grand Prix?
The every-1 Grand Prix is an event launched by Everylive Co., Ltd. in 2025 as a new form of comedy competition that merges 'comedy' with 'live streaming'.
A unique feature of this event is that the qualifying rounds are held within the everylive app, and the finalists are determined by in-app voting.
Additionally, leveraging the unique characteristics of live streaming, the 'every-1 Vertical Comedy Grand Prix' is held simultaneously, where participants compete using 'vertical skits' optimized for smartphone screens.
Both events are held four times a year with a prize of 100,000 yen for the winner of each round. The year-end grand prix event features a grand prize of 1,000,000 yen, making it a major competition where participants who win the voting events battle it out for the prize money.
Furthermore, starting from this year's event, BS12 Twelve is sponsoring the event, and the program 'Hawai ni Koishite!' currently broadcasting on BS12 Twelve is supporting the event as a collaborator.
## BS12 Twelve's 'Hawai ni Koishite!'
'Hawai ni Koishite!', broadcast on the nationwide free channel BS12 Twelve, is a Hawaii information program celebrating its 16th year of broadcasting this year.
