Billboard Latin Music Week will return to Miami's Faena Forum from Oct. 19 to 22, 2026, bringing more than 25 artist and industry panels along with a packed slate of concerts and showcases.
The event's signature Superstar Q&A series will feature intimate, candid conversations with Anuel AA, Becky G, Fuerza Regida, Kany García, Maluma, Pitbull and Ruben Blades. Other confirmed panels include Rawayana discussing their massive touring year behind ¿Dónde es el after?, and Trueno, Quevedo and Kidd Voodoo speaking on the new urban movement. For the first time, Latin Music Week will host a panel dedicated to reparto music, featuring Cuban stars Bebeshito, Wow Popy, DJ Conds, Rey Tony and Helabusador. The popular Women's and Regional Mexican panel franchises will also return.
Following the day's panels and networking sessions, the week will shift into a run of showcases, including two Billboard En Vivo Concerts: Fuerza Regida on Tuesday, and Jay Wheeler and Zhamira on Wednesday, the latter featuring special guest Conep and presented by Sonesta International Hotels.
For the first time in Latin Music Week history, Billboard is partnering with Eater on El Pre-Party, an evening celebrating Miami's music and food culture. The event will include salsa dancing lessons from Lenny Tavárez and his wife, Natasha Nazario, along with performances by Tavárez, Anthony Ramos and Micro TDH, and a DJ set from EP The Latino. Guests will also sample bites from Hispanic-owned Miami brands Caracas Bakery, The Wolf of Tacos and Sanguich, with recipes incorporating Walmart products and the new Great Value Hispanic spices line.
