Nearly 30 names that will bring life to a great musical spectacle, featuring exciting collaborations. Yandel and Myke Towers, Yng Lvcas and Peso Pluma, Manuel Turizo and Marshmello, Los Ángeles Azules, and a special tribute to Jenni Rivera are just some of the performances that will electrify the stage at the 2023 Billboard Latin Music Awards.
