Piñata Masters! 2022 host: Who is Daniel Sosa?

Comedian Daniel Sosa is all set to host a creative reality competition Piñata Masters! 2022 on Friday, December 23, 2022 at 3.01 am on Netflix.

On the show, seven teams will compete to earn the prestigious title of Piñata Masters with their colorful and creative work. Their creations must impress the most demanding and fickle of all juries - a group of picky children.

A piñata is a container that is made of papier-mâché, pottery, or cloth. It is then decorated and filled with candy, before breaking it up as part of a celebration. Talented artisans and creators from across the country will be put to the test to create colorful paper animals and unheard of objects from scratch.

However, the competition won’t be simple as piñatesters will keep a close eye on the contestants' creations. Many guests will also join the host on the show, where the winner will win one million pesos.
