Landing a song or album on the Billboard charts is a defining moment for any artist, label and creative team. Billboard Latin Music Week celebrates those milestones while offering behind-the-scenes insight into how chart-topping hits come together. This year’s event features an all-star lineup of panels and conversations with more than 40 artists—most of whom have earned at least one No. 1 on a Billboard chart.

The longest-running global gathering of Latin music’s icons and industry leaders returns to Faena Forum Miami Beach Oct. 19–22 for insightful programming, including Q&As, candid conversations, live showcases, roundtables, networking opportunities, activations and Billboard En Vivo spotlighting the best of Latin music. The event culminates Oct. 22 with the 2026 Billboard Latin Music Awards, airing live on Telemundo and available to stream on the Telemundo app, Peacock and Telemundo Internacional throughout Latin America and the Caribbean.

The ceremony honors the artists and musicians making history on the Billboard charts. This year’s finalists and winners are determined by chart performance from Sept. 13, 2025, through Sept. 5, 2026, reflecting the ways fans connect with music — from streaming and sales to radio airplay and touring — as measured by Billboard and its data partner, Luminate.
