2020 Latin American Music Conference Lineup

The 2020 Latin American Music Conference kicks off this week, and it’s looking a little different this year. Viewers can tune in virtually to discover the latest in Latin music from artists, industry leaders, and exhibitors.

Normally, the conference takes place in Los Angeles, but due to the risk of COVID-19, the entire 2020 event is online. Virtual attendees can register for free and watch at latinalternative.com, or watch the stream on twitch.

Users also have unprecedented access to a variety of panels, workshops, Q&A’s, and more. Panels focus on topics such as Latin women in the music industry and mental health in creative communities. The conference culminates on Saturday with a celebration of Pride Month. There are a lot of activities jam-packed into this week, so check out the schedule below so you don’t miss any of the action!
