22nd Annual Latin Grammy Awards

The 22nd Annual Latin Grammy Awards were held on Thursday, November 18, 2021, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, Las Vegas to honor the best musical releases within Latin music released from June 1, 2020, to May 31, 2021. The nominations were announced on September 28, 2021. The ceremony was aired live on TelevisaUnivision.

In June 2021, Panamanian musician Rubén Blades was named Person of the Year by the Latin Recording Academy, unlike last year where the main ceremony took place in a normal way but the Person of the Year award was not given nor did the ceremony for the award took place due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year's ceremony for the award took place on November 17, 2021, the day before the main ceremony as it usually does.

Singers and musicians Martinho da Vila, Emmanuel, Pete Escovedo, Sheila E., Fito Páez, Milly Quezada, Joaquín Sabina and Gilberto Santa Rosa received the Lifetime Achievement Award while Mexican producer Guillermo "Memo" Acosta and Colombian accordionist Egidio Cuadrado are this year's recipients of the Trustees Award.
