The Oscars may be around the corner, but it’s the Billboard Latin Music Awards that’s keeping everyone talking. Bringing together over 1,000 artists, composers, and musical executives, attendees will experience not one, but four full days of programming, showcases, educational sessions, exclusive parties, and networking events. Some of the major highlights include the Billboard Bash, a pre-awards extravaganza featuring live performances by top acts, as well as the annual Star Q&A where Billboard’s Executive Director of Latin Content Leila Cobo will host one-on-one sessions with several music artists. It’s no surprise that the Billboard Awards is being noted as the longest running, most prestigious show in the music industry, where many Latin artists are honored for their talents.
Some of the celebrities nominated include: Julieta Venegas, Flex, Calle 13, Ivy Queen, Juanes, Luis Fonsi, Mana, Enrique Iglesias, Belanova, Luis Miguel, Gloria Estefan, Aventura, Daddy Yankee, Shakira, Pitbull, and many more!
