In 2009, artists such as Latin sensation Daddy Yankee and British legend Simply Red captivated the audience of Viña. On its 50th edition, this famous festival was hosted by Felipe Camiroaga and news reader Soledad Onetto.
El Monstruo
Traditionally, the audience attending the Quinta Vergara for a Festival each year openly demonstrates its acceptance or displeasure on the acts that perform there, be they contestants in the two competitions or established artists. As a result, Chilean media has nicknamed audiences at the Festival as "El Monstruo" ("The Monster"). Earning acceptance from "El Monstruo" usually has a direct impact on an artist's popularity -particularly that of Spanish language pop stars- on the rest of Latin America. Conversely, booing artists offstage is not uncommon.
Artist compete in the Festival's regular competitions for one of three awards, given in this order: "Antorcha de Plata" (Silver Torch), "Antorcha de Oro" (Golden Torch) and "Gaviota de Plata" (Silver Seagull). However, audience response from the "Monster" may demand that one of the three awards -or, progressively, all three- also be granted to an established act as their performance progresses. An artist that "tames The Monster" by earning all three awards receives recognition as a major star by Chilean and Latin American media almost immediately after a successful performance.
International contest
- Before 1968, the contest only allowed Chilean composers.
In 2000 the contest included the best songs in the history of the festival.In 2009, the contest included former winners between 2001 and 2008.In 2010 had a contest with the most representative songs of the participant countries.
