The schedule and tickets are now available at BillboardLatinMusicWeek.com.

Sanz will participate in an exclusive Icon Q&A during Billboard Latin Music Week.

Sanz’s exclusive Q&A marks his return to Latin Music Week after he sat for an exclusive conversation in 2003, underscoring the significance of the event for both artists and the industry at large.

“It’s an honor to welcome Alejandro as he prepares to release new music. We pride ourselves in being a home for artists where they can speak creatively and openly, and we can’t wait to hear what Alejandro has to say,” said Leila Cobo, Billboard’s Chief Content Officer for Latin and Español.

From his debut in 1991 with ‘Viviendo Deprisa’ to his “Album of the Year” Latin GRAMMY nominated latest studio album “SANZ,” released in December 2021, Alejandro Sanz has established himself as one of the most well-known and influential artists around the world. With more than 25 million records sold, all his albums have obtained multiple Platinum status in Spain, Latin America and the United States. Throughout his career, Sanz has collaborated with different renowned artists from all over the world, including performers such as Alicia Keys, Shakira, Destiny’s Child, Laura Pausini, The Corrs, Ivete Sangalo, Emeli Sandé, Juanes, Juan Luis Guerra, Marc Anthony, Alejandro Fernández, Camila Cabello, Nicky Jam, Camilo and the legendary Tony Bennett. Among his latest releases are “Nasa” with Camilo, “La Despedida” included in the soundtrack of the movie Bullet Train, starring Brad Pitt and Bad Bunny and “Yo Soy” with Eros Ramazzotti. The singer recently obtained his own star on the famous Hollywood Walk of Fame, and was honored by his hometown of Andalucía, with the city’s highest distinction, a medal with the title of “Favorite Son.”
