Billboard Latin Music Week 2026 will bring some of the biggest names in Latin music together for a series of intimate artist conversations in Miami Beach. Taking place Oct. 19-22 at the Faena Forum, the annual gathering will feature panels, performances, showcases, workshops and networking opportunities celebrating Latin music’s continued global expansion.

Among the week’s most anticipated events are seven Superstar and Icon Q&As. The conversations will span generations, genres and creative perspectives, offering attendees a closer look at the stories behind some of Latin music’s most influential careers.

Kany García will open the Q&A slate with The Stories Behind the Songs, a conversation focused on her songwriting inspiration and creative process. On Oct. 20, Fuerza Regida — who’ll be honored with the Billboard Vanguard Award at the 2026 Billboard Latin Music Awards — will discuss its rapid rise and history-making stadium tour, while Anuel AA will take part in a special Premiere Party conversation.

The following day, Becky G will reflect on her artistic evolution, Mexican-American identity and latest album, Baraja Bendita. Maluma will appear for a Sony Music Publishing Icon Q&A, in addition to participating in a separate conversation about mental health. Panamanian salsa legend Rubén Blades will sit down with Billboard’s Leila Cobo for an Icon Q&A following news of his 2026 Billboard Icon Award. And Pitbull will revisit his global crossover career during Chart History Live.

Together, the sessions showcase the range of Latin music today — from música mexicana and Latin pop to salsa and urbano — while highlighting the artists shaping its past, present and future.
