Slávik Awards
Former Slovak music awards
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Slávik (English: "nightingale") was a Slovak music poll and award established by the company Forza—which organizes the Miss Slovakia beauty pageant—in 1998, as a successor to Czechoslovakia's Zlatý slavík, which ran from 1962 until 1991.[1][2] The annual event was broadcast live through the television channels Markíza from 1998 to 2010 and TV JOJ from 2011 until 2012. Forza dissolved the event a year later due to declining interest.[3] In the poll's previous years, victory had been conditional on receiving at least 34,000 votes, which in the final years had dropped to 5,000.[4] Czechia, formerly part of Czechoslovakia, has its own music award, known as Český slavík (English: "Czech nightingale").
