The 8th Annual Latin American Music Awards was held on April 20, 2023, to recognize outstanding achievements for artists in the Latin music industry of 2022, voted by the public.[2]
The ceremony was place at the MGM Grand Arena in Las Vegas, United States, and was broadcast simultaneously on Univision, UniMás and Galavisión in the United States, and Canal 5 in México.[3][4] This marks the first time in the history of the awards that the ceremony was broadcast on Univision instead of Telemundo, this was the result of TelevisaUnivision acquiring rights to the ceremony from Dick Clark Productions in September 2022. It was hosted by Argentine-Puerto Rican actor Julián Gil, Mexican presenter Galilea Montijo, Dominican actor and model Clarissa Molina and Dominican singer Natti Natasha.[5]
The nominations were announced on March 13, 2023, with Puerto Rican singer Bad Bunny leading the nominations with eleven, followed by Becky G and Daddy Yankee with nine each.[5] New categories were introduced such as Best Streaming Artist of the Year as well as four new collaboration categories: Collaboration Crossover of the Year, Best Collaboration – Pop/Urban, Best Collaboration – Regional Mexican and Best Collaboration – Tropical.
Colombian singer and songwriter Carlos Vives was honored with the Legacy Award, while Spanish singer and songwriter David Bisbal and American singer Prince Royce were both recognized with the Pioneer Award.[6]
