2022 Heat Latin Music Awards: How to Watch, All the Performers, &More

The 2022 Heat Latin Music Awards (or Premios Heat) are taking place Thursday (June 2) live from Cap Cana, Punta Cana, in the Dominican Republic.

In March, Billboard unveiled this year’s nominees with the five-time nominated Bad Bunny leading the pack, followed by Wisin, J Balvin, Karol G, Greeicy, and Maria Becerra with four nominations each. Rosalía, Christian Nodal, Carlos Vives, Nacho, Mike Bahía, Justin Quiles, Blessd, and Tiago PZK each have three.

Blessd, JD Pantoja, Bizarrap, Tiago PZK, Ryan Castro, Khea, Alvaro Diaz, and Feid are up for the coveted best new artist award, one of the 17 promising categories. And for a second consecutive year, Premios Heat will crown the best Dominican artist, which went to El Alfa in 2021. El Alfa, alongside Dominican stars Natti Natasha, Rochy RD, Chimbala, Kiko El Crazy, and many more, are after the title in 2022.

The Heat Latin Music Awards follows a wave of educational conferences and showcases that kicked off on Monday, May 30. See below for everything you need to know about the seventh annual ceremony:
