“From our first ceremony, the Latin Grammy Awards have placed Latin music at the center of the international stage in an unparalleled way. Over these 25 years, we have seen landmark performances that have become part of the history of music and popular culture,” said Mireya.
The city of Miami is preparing to host one of the most important events in Latin music: the 25th edition of the Latin Grammy Awards. This gala will not only mark a milestone in the history of the awards but also reaffirm Miami’s position as an epicenter of Hispanic music and culture. This year, the ceremony will take place at the Kaseya Center, an iconic venue that has witnessed some of the most significant moments in Florida’s entertainment scene.
Mireya Blavia de Cisneros, CEO of the Latin Grammy Cultural Foundation, has been one of the key figures behind the organization of this grand event. Since her appointment as the Foundation’s leader, Mireya has worked tirelessly to support and promote Latin music worldwide. On this special occasion, she has shared her reflections on the impact of the Latin Grammy Awards on Hispanic culture and music over these 25 years.
The Importance of the Latin Grammy Awards on the International Stage
Since its first edition in the year 2000, the Latin GRAMMY Awards have played a fundamental role in the global recognition of Latin music. For Mireya Blavia de Cisneros, this ceremony is not just a platform for established artists but also an opportunity for new voices to be heard and make a lasting impact on the industry.
“From our first ceremony, the Latin Grammy Awards have placed Latin music at the center of the international stage in an unparalleled way. Over these 25 years, we have seen landmark performances that have become part of the history of music and popular culture,” said Mireya.
Blavia de Cisneros also highlighted the importance of celebrating this 25th anniversary in Miami, a city that has served as a melting pot for different cultures and has consistently supported Spanish-language music.
The Return to Miami: A Celebration with Meaning
This will be the third time that the Latin Grammy Awards are held in Miami. The first occasion was in 2003, and more recently, in 2020, during a year marked by the COVID-19 pandemic, when the ceremony was held without an audience. Now, in 2024, the city will host the event again, but this time with all the energy and enthusiasm that characterizes Latin music.
“Miami has been a key partner for us. It is a vibrant city that reflects the diversity and passion of the Latin community,” added Mireya Blavia de Cisneros.
The Kaseya Center will be the epicenter of a night that promises unforgettable performances from some of the biggest names in Latin music. Renowned artists, as well as emerging talents, are expected to take the stage to celebrate this quarter-century of success.
