2026 Latin Grammy nominees you can see live on tour and how to get Latin Grammy tickets

The 2026 Latin Grammy nominations are here, and some of this year’s biggest contenders are also spending the next few months onstage.

The 27th Annual Latin Grammy Awards take place Thursday, November 12, 2026 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas. This year’s nominees span 60 categories, with songwriter-producer Edgar Barrera leading all nominees with 10 nods. Among performing artists, Karol G, Rosalía, CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso and Jorge Drexler earned seven nominations apiece while Mon Laferte and Silvana Estrada landed six.

For concert fans, the nominations also double as a guide to some of the most exciting Latin artists to see live right now. From Karol G’s stadium-sized Tropicoqueta era to Carín León’s genre-blurring MUDA shows and Mon Laferte’s theatrical Femme Fatale Tour, several 2026 Latin Grammy nominees still have U.S. and Canadian concerts ahead.

Here are the 2026 Latin Grammy nominees you can see live, plus the music that earned them nominations and where their tours are headed next.

2026 Latin Grammy nominees currently performing live

Karol G

Karol G is taking one of the year’s most nominated Latin albums straight to stadiums.

Tropicoqueta is nominated for Album of the Year and Best Urban Music Album, while “Coleccionando Heridas,” her collaboration with Marco Antonio Solís, is up for Record of the Year and Song of the Year. “Dile Luna” earned a Best Urban Performance nomination and her Feid collaboration “Verano Rosa” is nominated for Best Reggaeton Performance.

She is currently performing on the VIAJANDO POR EL MUNDO TROPITOUR, the stadium tour built around the Tropicoqueta era. The remaining North American schedule includes Atlanta, Houston, Miami, Tampa and Arlington before the tour continues internationally.

For fans who have spent the year streaming Tropicoqueta, the tour offers the chance to hear the album at its biggest possible scale before Latin Grammy night arrives.

Carín León

Carín León’s 2026 has already included a historic run at Sphere, a major North American tour and now some of the biggest nominations of his career.

His album MUDA is nominated for Album of the Year, while “Desde Que Te Tengo” is nominated for Record of the Year.

León still has U.S. stops on his De Sonora Para El Mundo Tour through early October, including San Diego, Glendale, Ontario, Sacramento, Denver, Salt Lake City, Seattle and Portland. Fans will also have more opportunities in 2027: he is booked for Stagecoach and will return to Sphere in Las Vegas for another multi-night run in September.

Few nominees offer a wider musical range live. León moves between norteño, ranchera, country, rock, soul and pop, making the genre-crossing approach of MUDA feel especially natural onstage.

Mon Laferte

The title Femme Fatale appears all over the 2026 Latin Grammy ballot.

Mon Laferte is nominated for Record of the Year and Song of the Year for “Femme Fatale,” while the album of the same name is nominated for Album of the Year. “Melancolía” is also nominated for Best Pop Song.

Her Femme Fatale Tour is currently crossing North America, with dates running into November. Remaining stops include Texas, Phoenix, Portland, Seattle, Denver, Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, San Jose and Los Angeles.

It is a particularly timely tour to catch: rather than waiting for older catalog favorites, fans can see Laferte performing in the middle of the exact album cycle being recognized by the Latin Recording Academy.

Jorge Drexler

Jorge Drexler enters the 2026 Latin Grammys as one of the ceremony’s most nominated artists with seven nods.

“¿Cómo Se Ama?” is nominated for Record of the Year and Song of the Year, while Taracá is up for Album of the Year. Drexler also appears in categories including Best Singer-Songwriter Album, Best Singer-Songwriter Song and Best Roots Song.

U.S. fans have a particularly interesting post-Grammys opportunity: Drexler is scheduled to perform at Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles on November 14, just two days after the Latin Grammy Awards.

Rawayana

Rawayana’s newest era has grown from a tour into an Album of the Year campaign.

The Venezuelan band’s ¿Dónde Es El After? is nominated for Album of the Year, putting Rawayana alongside Karol G, Carín León, Mon Laferte, Rosalía, Jorge Drexler and other major contenders in the general field.

The ¿Dónde Es El After? World Tour arrives in the U.S. and Canada this fall with stops including San Francisco, Denver, Toronto, Montreal, Boston, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Chicago, Los Angeles, Houston, Orlando and Miami.

The tour also makes the album’s genre mix part of the experience. Rawayana has built its sound around combinations of reggae, funk, Caribbean rhythms, alternative music and contemporary Latin pop rather than staying inside one lane.

Juanes

Juanes’ current tour and his Latin Grammy nominations are centered on the same new chapter.

Juanesteban is nominated for Best Pop/Rock Album, while “Humano,” his collaboration with Vivir Quintana, is nominated for Song of the Year.

His North America Tour 2026 continues through October, with upcoming concerts in Rosemont, Omaha, Irving, San Antonio, McAllen, Salt Lake City, San Jose, the Los Angeles area and more.

The result is a tour that can move between new material and a catalog stretching back through “La Camisa Negra,” “A Dios le Pido,” “Fotografía” and more than two decades of Latin rock and pop.

Kany García

Kany García has two major nominations attached directly to the music driving her current tour.

Puerta Abierta is nominated for Best Traditional Pop Album, while “A La Niña Que Fui” is nominated for Best Pop Song.

The Puerta Abierta Tour is currently making its way across North America. The U.S. and Canadian run continues into early October with stops including Boston, Newark, Philadelphia, the Washington, D.C. area, Atlanta, Miami and Orlando.

For fans of singer-songwriter-focused shows, García’s tour gives the Latin Grammy conversation a more intimate counterpoint to this year’s arena and stadium runs.

Ryan Castro

Ryan Castro has two different sides of his 2026 output represented in the urban categories.

“La Villa,” with Kapo and Gangsta, is nominated for Best Urban Performance, while Omerta, his joint project with J Balvin, is nominated for Best Urban Music Album.

Castro is also wrapping up the Sendé – The Last Dance Tour, the final U.S. chapter of the Sendé era. Upcoming dates include Charlotte, Nashville, San Antonio, Tempe, San Jose and Denver.

The tour connects his newer Caribbean and dancehall-influenced material with the reggaeton records that helped turn him into one of Colombia’s biggest current urban acts.

Bad Gyal

Bad Gyal has nominations in two of the Latin Grammys’ biggest urban categories.

Más Cara is nominated for Best Urban Music Album, while “Choque,” featuring Chencho Corleone, is nominated for Best Reggaeton Performance.

Her Más Cara World Tour 2026 reaches the U.S. this fall with shows in Miami Beach, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles and Dallas.

That makes this one of the easiest ways to experience a nominated urban album as a full live era rather than simply hearing its biggest single.

Lila Downs

Lila Downs has both a competitive nomination and additional Latin Grammy recognition in 2026.

Her album Cambias Mi Mundo is nominated for Best Folk Album, while the Latin Recording Academy has also named Downs as one of its 2026 Lifetime Achievement Award recipients.

Her upcoming U.S. schedule includes Seattle, San Francisco, Davis, San Diego and Los Angeles this October, followed by additional 2027 concerts in Chicago and New York.

Santana

Carlos Santana is part of one of this year’s biggest cross-generational collaborations.

“Mi Gran Amor,” performed by Santana featuring Becky G, is nominated for Song of the Year, with Santana and Becky G among its credited songwriters.

Santana remains one of the easiest 2026 Latin Grammy nominees to catch in Las Vegas. His upcoming House of Blues schedule stretches through September and returns for another run in November, including a show on Latin Grammy night itself.

Becky G

Becky G shares Santana’s Song of the Year nomination for “Mi Gran Amor,” adding another major-category nomination to a career that has increasingly crossed between Latin pop, urbano and música mexicana.

Fans still have select opportunities to see her live this fall, including currently listed October performances in Albuquerque and Phoenix.
