Rosalía was the biggest winner at the 27th Latin Grammy Awards in Las Vegas, taking Album of the Year and Song of the Year at a ceremony held on Thursday, 12 November, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.

The Spanish singer won Album of the Year for LUX (Complete Works) and Song of the Year for "La Perla", her collaboration with Yahritza y Su Esencia. She also won Best Pop Song for "La Perla" and Best Alternative Music Album for LUX, capping a night in which she had arrived with seven nominations.

The awards, presented by the Latin Recording Academy, honour the best Latin recordings released between 1 June 2025 and 31 May 2026, across 60 categories. Most of the trophies were handed out at an afternoon Premiere ceremony before the main televised show.

Milo J takes Record of the Year

Record of the Year, the night's other top prize, went to Argentine rapper Milo J for "Niño", from his album La Vida Era Más Corta. The 19-year-old was one of the afternoon's biggest winners at the Premiere ceremony, where he also won Best Urban Performance for "Gil", featuring Trueno.

Best New Artist went to Aria Vega, while producer and songwriter Édgar Barrera — the night's most-nominated artist with 10 nods — was named Producer of the Year. Sara Schell, a Venezuelan newcomer, won Songwriter of the Year.

Mexican singer-songwriter Silvana Estrada, who arrived with six nominations, won Best Singer-Songwriter Song for "Dime", the single from her album Vendrán Suaves Lluvias.

Karol G, Drexler and Daddy Yankee among winners

Karol G, who shared the lead with seven nominations, won Best Reggaeton Performance for "Verano Rosa", featuring Feid, and Best Urban Music Album for Tropicoqueta.

Uruguayan singer-songwriter Jorge Drexler won Best Singer-Songwriter Album for Taracá and Best Alternative Song for "Ante la duda, baila". Argentine duo CA7RIEL & Paco Amoroso won Best Electronic Music Performance for "Beto's Horns — Fred Remix" with Fred Again.., and Best Pop/Rock Song for "Hasta Jesús Tuvo Un Mal Día", featuring Sting.

Daddy Yankee, honoured this year as the Latin Recording Academy's Person of the Year, also won Best Urban Song alongside producer Bizarrap for "Daddy Yankee: Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 0/66".

Other winners included Alejandro Sanz, who took Best Contemporary Pop Album for ¿Y Ahora Qué +?, Fito Páez, who won Best Rock Album for Shine, and Carlos Vives, who won Best Cumbia/Vallenato Album for El Último Disco Vol. 1. Laura Pausini won Best Traditional Pop Album for Yo Canto 2, and Bobby Pulido won Best Tejano Album as he prepares to step away from music.

Microsoft outage causes delays

The evening was not without a hitch. A global Microsoft outage earlier in the day caused minor ticketing and entry delays for guests arriving at the MGM Grand, something Latin Recording Academy chief executive Manuel Abud acknowledged during the Premiere ceremony.

The ceremony was hosted by Roselyn Sánchez for a tenth time and broadcast on Univision, UNIMÁS and Galavisión, as well as streaming on ViX.

Rosalía's double win in the two biggest album and song categories confirms LUX as one of the defining Latin records of the year — an orchestral, multilingual album that she supported with the Lux Tour across Europe, Latin America and North America in 2026.
