The grand gala of the 2023 Latin GRAMMYs is just around the corner, and now Spanish-speaking music lovers can’t help but ask the same question over and over again: How can one get tickets to attend the grand event at the Palace of Congresses and Exhibitions of Seville (FIBES)?

Unfortunately, the answer is that you can’t do anything if you don’t already have an invitation. As the Latin Recording Academy confirmed weeks ago, this year’s musical awards ceremony in 2023 will be an exclusive event for members of the music industry and the Academy. Only those who are nominated, performing, or have an invitation in hand can attend, due to the capacity issues posed by such a large-scale event. So, if you’re not one of the fortunate ones invited by the Academy, or one of the few who are even luckier because they won tickets through contests held by various brands in recent weeks, you’ll have to settle for watching the gala live online or on television.

When & Where to Watch the 2023 Latin GRAMMYs

The 2023 Latin GRAMMYs, officially designated as the 24th Latin GRAMMY Awards, are scheduled to be televised from the Conference and Exhibition Centre (FIBES) in Sevilla (Seville), Andalucía, Spain, on Thursday, Nov. 16, 2023, at 8 p.m. ET (7 p.m. CT) on Univision, UniMás, and Galavisión in the U.S., and at 10:30 p.m. CET on Radiotelevisión Española (RTVE) in Spain. Additionally, it will be broadcast on cable channel TNT at 19:30 (MEX) / 20:30 (PAN-COL) / 21:30 (VEN) / 22:30 (ARG/CHI). The ceremony is set to broadcast in over 80 countries globally.

This year’s ceremony boasts an impressive lineup of hosts who will navigate us through the awards show: Danna Paola, Sebastián Yatra, Roselyn Sánchez, and Paz Vega. Yatra stands out with his 15th nomination, this time in the Best Pop Song category. Meanwhile, Roselyn Sánchez and Paz Vega, seasoned Latin Grammy personalities, are making a comeback to the stage. Sánchez, with six prior hosting experiences, is accompanied by Vega, who previously took on hosting duties in 2019. On the other hand, Danna Paola is making her debut as part of the presenting group this year.
