The most prestigious and longest-running awards show in Latin music, the "Billboard Latin Music Awards," finally has a new date. The long awaited music award show has been rescheduled to Wednesday, October 21.
Due to the outbreak of Covid-19, the "Billboard Latin Music Awards" was postponed from its original accustomed April date. It will be broadcasted live from the BB&T Center in Sunrise, Florida instead of Las Vegas starting first with the red carpet at 7 p.m. ET/6 p.m. CT followed by the music award show at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT.
The three-hour music award show will have five different stages to accommodate multiple live performances by today’s top Latin artists. They will honor the most popular albums, songs and performers in Latin music. A digital experience is also a major factor this year so fans can be directly involved. The show will celebrate Latin music’s finest, and honor this year’s finalists, which include Bad Bunny, Ozuna, Daddy Yankee, J Balvin, Karol G, Christian Nodal, Banda MS, Rosalía, Luis Fonsi and Romeo Santos, among others.
“Music continues to be a uniting force that transcends all boundaries to bring audiences together and provide much-needed entertainment for the entire family,” said Ronald Day, Executive Vice President of Entertainment for Telemundo. “Today, more than ever, we are thrilled to be able to bring our viewers this year’s Billboard Latin Music Awards in a one-of-a-kind event to commemorate and celebrate our most beloved Latin stars with a night full of music and surprises for everyone.”
The "Billboard Latin Music Awards" winners are determined by the actual sales, streaming, radio airplay and social data that informs Billboard's weekly charts during a one-year period from the rankings dated February 2, 2019 through this year's January 25 charts. The winners are revealed during the "Billboard Latin Music Awards" telecast on Telemundo, on Spanish entertainment cable network, Universo and throughout the Americas on Telemundo Internacional.
The music awards coincides with Billboard’s Latin Music Week in which this year will entail a three-day virtual experience from October 20 through October 23 dedicated to Latin music, culture, and entertainment. Celebrating its 30th anniversary, the event will feature intimate artist conversations, industry panels, exclusive performances and among other interesting sessions.
