Presented by The Latin Recording Academy, the Latin Grammy Awards are the preeminent international honors dedicated entirely to recognizing artistic and technical excellence in Latin music.
Language and Regional Scope: The awards honor outstanding recordings released anywhere in the world, provided they are tied to Ibero-America (including Latin America, Spain, Portugal, and the Latino communities in the U.S. and Canada). Eligible works are primarily recorded in Spanish or Portuguese, alongside recognized regional indigenous languages and dialects.
Peer-Voted Excellence: Modeled after the traditional Grammy Awards, winners are determined through a rigorous peer-review process. Voting members consist of active music professionals—artists, songwriters, producers, and engineers—who evaluate entries across an expansive list of genres.
Massive Genre Breakdown: The ceremony spans dozens of specialized fields and categories—covering everything from Pop, Urban, Rock, Alternative, and Tropical to Regional Mexican, Singer-Songwriter, and Brazilian music—showcasing the incredible diversity and global cultural footprint of Latin sounds.
