The event, which honors achievements in Latin music across a range of genres and languages, returns to Las Vegas for the 15th time. "The city has welcomed the Latin GRAMMYs over the years, and we look forward to another great Latin GRAMMY Week celebrating Latin music and its creators,' says Manuel Abud, CEO of The Latin Recording Academy. The return to Las Vegas comes after a period of change, innovation and expansion for the awards show. In 2023, the Latin GRAMMYs were held outside the United States for the first time, with the ceremony taking place in Sevilla, Spain. The Latin Recording Academy made the move as a way to capitalize on the growing international reach of Latin music, which also led to the inclusion of new categories such as Best Portuguese Language Urban Performance to acknowledge the influence of artists from Brazil and Portugal. Last year, for its 25th anniversary, the Latin GRAMMYs were brought back to Miami, where the first ceremony was held in 2000 and where the Academy is headquartered. The 2024 show marked the fourth time Miami hosted the awards. It previously did so in 2003 and 2020. The 2020 ceremony was held without a live audience due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Latin GRAMMY Week will again feature a series of events in Las Vegas, including the Special Awards Ceremony, Leading Ladies of Entertainment, Latin GRAMMY In The Schools, Nominee Reception, Best New Artist Showcase, Person of the Year Gala, and the Premiere Ceremony. Nominations will be revealed on September 17, 2025, and streamed on the Latin Academy's social channels. The first round of voting runs from July 28 to August 8, with final voting from October 1 to October 13. The 26th annual Latin GRAMMY Awards ceremony is scheduled for November 13, 2025, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, with live coverage on Univision beginning at 8 p.m. ET/PT (7 p.m. Central) and a pre-show at 7 p.m. ET/PT (6 p.m. Central).

The 2025 Latin Grammys will return to Las Vegas for the 15th time
NEW YORK (AP) — The 2025 Latin Grammys are headed back to Las Vegas. The 26th annual award show will take place on Nov. 13 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. It marks the 15th time the show has taken place in Sin City. The three-hour telecast will be broadcast live on Univision. Nominations will be announced on Sept. 17. Last year's ceremony was held at the Kaseya Center in Miami — the heart of Latin culture in the U.S., where the Latin Recording Academy is headquartered. Gabriel Abaroa Jr., the Latin Recording Academy's former president and CEO (2003-2021) and current president emeritus told The Associated Press in 2024 that the idea is 'to keep the Latin Grammys traveling, because it shows the nature of our music.' The inaugural Latin Grammy Awards were held in Los Angeles in 2000, followed by shows in Miami, New York City, Houston, Seville, Spain and Las Vegas. The 2023 Latin Grammys were held in Seville, Spain, the first and only time the show took place outside the U.S. The move, facilitated by a nearly 19 million-euro deal between the government of Andalusia and the Latin Recording Academy, sparked some controversy, with some criticizing the Latin Grammys decision to hold the show in the very European country that colonized much of Latin America. 'In the next couple of years, you will see another international edition of the Latin Grammys,' Manuel Abud, CEO of The Latin Recording Academy told AP last year. In a statement partnering the 2025 announcement, Abud said, 'We are proud to once again bring the passion and creativity of Latin music to Las Vegas. The city has welcomed the Latin Grammys over the years, and we look forward to another great Latin Grammy week celebrating Latin music and its creators.'
