The iHeartRadio Fiesta Latina Returns October 8 -15


iHeartMedia has announced that the 2020 "iHeartRadio Fiesta Latina" will return October 8 - 15 and celebrate the best in Latin culture and music during Hispanic Heritage Month. Featured performers include Ozuna, Prince Royce, Anitta, Myke Towers, Manuel Turizo, Camilo and Nicky Jam.

Hosted by Enrique Santos, Chairman and Chief Creative Officer of iHeartLatino and on-air personality for iHeartRadio, this year's virtual event will feature remote performances from artists' homes and studios around the world, as well as stories from members of the Latin community who have changed the world of art, television, cinema, radio and politics.

Hulu subscribers can watch the 2020 iHeartRadio Fiesta Latina as a one-hour special beginning October 8 at 8pm ET/5pm PT through October 15. The seventh annual event will also stream in its entirety on LiveXLive (NASDAQ: LIVX) and broadcast across iHeartMedia's Spanish Mainstream Hits, Tropical, Regional Mexican, Tejano, Hot AC and Oldies radio stations nationwide.

"At a time when COVID-19 is disproportionately impacting the Latin community and people of color, we hope the 2020 iHeartRadio Fiesta Latina and our month-long Hispanic Heritage Month spotlight of the inspiring thought leaders impacting today's culture will be a reminder of our resilience and achievements," said Santos. "Now more than ever, this year's Fiesta Latina will be a celebration of our community. Although music fans will not be able to physically attend the event in person given the limitations on live events during the pandemic, they can still experience the energy and excitement of this mega-concert via the stream and broadcast."

Proud partners of the iHeartRadio Fiesta Latina include Goya and OGX Beauty, with more to be announced.
