Billboard remains committed to celebrating artists and creating one-of-a-kind experiences that connect them to their passionate fans. We are eager to continue to build upon the experience and are proud of Billboard’s legacy of supporting Latin Music and its undeniable impact on music and culture.”
Billboard Latin Music Week will coincide with the 2022 Billboard Latin Music Awards on Thursday, September 29 in Miami, which will be broadcast LIVE on Telemundo. For over 30 years, Billboard Latin Music Week has been the longest-running and biggest Latin music industry gathering in the world, uniting generations of talent with fans and garnering billions of press hits, engagements, and viewership globally.
Last year’s edition featured star Q&As with Daddy Yankee and Karol G, plus showstopping performances by Anitta, Rauw Alejandro, and Natti Natasha.

“This year, our Latin Music theme is ‘Latin Goes Global,’ as we celebrate the launch of Billboard Español, a website that will be completely in Spanish, further cementing our position as the ultimate authority in Latin music. Billboard has created a global stage for Latin industry leaders, artists, and influencers to share their stories, celebrate their achievements, and discuss the industry’s future. As we celebrate Latin music’s global impact, I’m beyond thrilled to return to Miami to connect with the biggest stars, executives, and players,” Cobo added.
