iHeartMedia is bringing back its annual Fiesta Latina concert. The 13th edition heads to Miami’s Kaseya Center on Saturday, October 17.
What We Know: The 2026 iHeartRadio Fiesta Latina features a strong lineup. Performers include Myke Towers, Blessd, Farruko, Manuel Turizo, Eladio Carrión, FloyyMenor, Greeicy, Alleh, and Rey Tony Y Helabusador “Los Titis.” Enrique Santos, President of iHeartLatino, returns as host. Additionally, Lin-Manuel Miranda will receive the 2026 iHeartRadio Corazón Latino Award.
What’s at Stake: Latin music’s cultural momentum continues to grow — and iHeart knows it. This event showcases the format’s commercial and cultural power across multiple Spanish-language formats. Moreover, honoring Miranda elevates the night beyond entertainment into a statement about Latino representation. Tickets go on sale July 28 at 10am ET via Ticketmaster.
What Remains Unclear: iHeartMedia hasn’t revealed specific broadcast times or streaming windows yet. It’s also unclear whether additional performers will join the lineup before October. Furthermore, details around the Miranda tribute segment — its format and participants — remain unconfirmed.
What It Means: Fiesta Latina remains one of iHeart’s most culturally significant live events. The concert reaches fans through Spanish Contemporary Hits, Tropical, Regional Mexican, Tejano, and Spanish Adult Hits stations. It also streams across multiple iHeartRadio digital stations simultaneously. Consequently, this isn’t just a concert — it’s a national broadcast moment for Latin music.
