Ryan Castro and Trueno are among 15 newly announced presenters for the 27th Annual Latin GRAMMY Awards. The Latin Recording Academy named the group on November 10, two days before the November 12 ceremony in Las Vegas.

Two urban nominees join the ceremony roster

Both rappers also enter the telecast as nominees: the Academy lists Ryan Castro for Best Urban Performance and Best Urban Music Album, and Trueno for Best Urban Performance. Their presenter roles are separate from the show’s previously announced performer lineup.

The additions also include Pablo Alborán, Camila Cabello, Lila Downs, Greeicy, Joaquina, Daniela Mercury, Debi Nova, Luísa Sonza, Anthony Ramos, Sara Schell, Howie D, William Contreras and Memo Ochoa. The Academy says Downs and Mercury received this year’s Musical Excellence Award.

The three-hour telecast is scheduled to start at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Univision, preceded by a one-hour pre-show at 7 p.m. ET/PT. The afternoon Latin GRAMMY Premiere is a separate ceremony where most of the categories are awarded.
