Celebrating 20 Years of Latin Music!



Now in its 20th year, the Billboard Latin Music Conference & Awards is the single most important Latin music industry event in the world.

Bringing together over 1,000 powerful music executives, artists, composers, sponsors and press, it features four full days of programming, showcases, educational sessions, parties and networking events.  Week highlights include the Billboard Bash, a pre-awards extravaganza featuring live performances by top acts, and the annual Star Q&A, an intimate one-one interview conducted by Billboard’s executive director of Latin content, Leila Cobo.

The week is capped off by the longest running, most prestigious awards show in the music industry, The Billboard Latin Music Awards, which honors the biggest and brightest stars in the industry. From the dazzling red carpet to stunning performances by the NO. 1 artists on the charts, this is “the” Latin music award show that truly reflects the best in the marketplace.

The Billboard Latin Music Conference & Awards is part of Billboard's long-standing editorial commitment to Latin music coverage. Billboard magazine publishes weekly charts and a expanded weekly Latin music section as well as special stand sections 4 times a year which provides even more in-depth coverage.
