Billboard adds Anuel AA, Grupo Frontera and more to Latin Music Week 2026
Anuel AA, Grupo Frontera, Mau y Ricky and Santos Bravos are among the latest additions to Billboard Latin Music Week 2026. The industry gathering is scheduled for Oct. 19-22 at Faena Forum in Miami Beach. Billboard confirmed the new names at a press conference at the venue on Monday, Sept. 14.
Latin Music Week is Billboard's annual mix of concerts, panels and industry sessions built around Latin music. The panels are public discussions where artists and business leaders talk about making, releasing and touring records. This year's edition will again be based in Miami Beach.
Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava joined Billboard's Leila Cobo on stage for the announcement. They were joined by artists Bebeshito, Jessi Uribe, Mau y Ricky, Paola Jara and Wow Popy to present the 2026 programme.
Other newly announced participants include Ana Mena, Carlos Rivera, Clave Especial, Ela Taubert, Grupo Caañaveral, Grupo Niche, Kidd Voodoo and Lali. The update also added five executive panelists: Claudia Ochoa, Cristina Perpiñá-Robert, Ghazi, Miguel Ramírez and Paz Aparicio.
They join names announced earlier, including Alofoke, Carín León, DY, and Gloria and Emilio Estefan. The official event site also lists Maluma, Pitbull, Fuerza Regida, Jay Wheeler, Greeicy, Quevedo, Trueno, Rawayana, Ryan Castro, Kany Garcia and Lola Indigo among the participants for 2026, alongside executives Tommy Mottola, Walter Kolm, Rebeca León and Jorge "Pepo" Ferradas.
