Billboard Latin Music Week is returning to Miami Beach

Registration is now open for the 35th-anniversary event taking place Oct. 14-18.

Billboard also unveiled the first round of participating artists, including Bad Gyal, DANNA, Danny Ocean, Domelipa, Fat Joe, Gloria Estefan, JOP (of Fuerza Regida), Keityn, Lele Pons, Luis Alfonso, Maria Becerra, Mau y Ricky, Mon Laferte, N.O.R.E., Paola Jara, Peso Pluma, Pipe Bueno, Sophia Talamas, Yeison Jiménez and Yeri Mua. More will be announced in the coming months.

The 35th-anniversary event, which celebrates Latin music, culture and entertainment, will feature exclusive panels, conversations and performances by Latin music’s biggest stars. Tickets are available now at BillboardLatinMusicWeek.com.

“Latin music is living its most successful and globally recognized moment ever this year,” said Leila Cobo, Billboard’s chief content officer for Latin/Español. “But Billboard has been proudly at its side for over 35 years as the main flag bearer, supporter and ultimate opinion maker for Latin music around the world. During a year when Latin music is dominating the charts and the cultural zeitgeist, we are thrilled to return to Miami Beach, the global capital of Latin music, for this exciting week-long event.”

“We are proud of the decades-long work we have done to celebrate Latin talent and bring the community together. This year’s event will be an unmatched celebration for artists, the industry and fans,” added Mike Van, president of Billboard.

The 2024 edition of Billboard Latin Music Week will spotlight a 35th-anniversary party on Friday, Oct. 18 — plus one-of-a-kind performances, workshops, networking opportunities and more throughout the week. Last year’s conference lineup featured Billboard En Vivo performances from Peso Pluma, Nathy Peluso with Young Miko and Fonseca, as well as a first-ever conversion with RBD members, a superstar Q&A with Shakira, and a premiere party with Thalia.

“Miami Beach is ready to once again host Billboard Latin Music Week, an event that truly showcases the vibrant and diverse culture of our community,” said Mayor of Miami Beach Steven Meiner. “This week not only celebrates the rich heritage of Latin music, but also highlights Miami Beach as a global destination for arts and entertainment. We look forward to another unforgettable week of music.”

This year, Billboard is introducing new GA day passes providing attendees with the opportunity to join the event on specific days when their favorite stars and industry experts command the stage with thought-provoking discussions,  performances, interactive workshops and other engaging events.

Billboard Latin Music Week will coincide with the 2024 Billboard Latin Music Awards, which will air again on the Telemundo network. Closing out the packed week of events, Billboard will partner with Bresh to host the grand finale party of Billboard Latin Music Week. More details to come. (Note: Latin Music Week tickets will not include access to the awards show this year. Instead, INSIDER badge holders will receive exclusive invitations to the star-studded Oct. 18 celebration.)

Billboard Latin Music Week has been the longest-running and biggest Latin music industry gathering in the world, spotlighting Latin’s top artists, actors, influencers, and industry leaders. The conference has become a must-attend event for artists, executives and players in the industry, both new and upcoming as well as established.
