¡HOLA! Americas Celebrates Latina Powerhouse 100
¡HOLA! Americas has officially announced the return of its prestigious Latina Powerhouse 100 initiative. This celebration, taking place on November 2, 2026, at the Ziff Ballet Opera House in the Adrienne Arsht Center, promises to be a grand affair, gathering more than 400 guests to recognize the exceptional contributions of Latina women.
The event's theme, "Hispanic Heritage: Inspiring the Future of America," aims to honor 100 remarkable women who excel in various fields, showcasing their influence and achievements. This year marks the sixth edition of the Latina Powerhouse, a project that has significantly expanded since its inception in 2020 when it was initiated as a digital platform celebrating the accomplishments and narratives of Latina women.
According to Nagidmy Márquez Acosta, the Head of Content at ¡HOLA! Americas, "The purpose behind Latina Powerhouse was to bring attention to outstanding women and the compelling stories deserving to be told. Six years later, we not only celebrate their achievements but also pay tribute to the invaluable legacy they are building for the next generation."
The Miami gala, larger than any previous iteration, will transform the Ziff Ballet Opera House into a warm and inviting space for a communal celebration. The gathering will include special acknowledgments of the honored women, accompanied by a unique musical performance titled "The Soundtrack of the Americas," featuring a Latina Powerhouse Big Band and special guests, celebrating musical works connecting different cultures and generations across the Americas.
Over the years, Latina Powerhouse 100 has recognized distinguished figures such as Shakira, Chita Rivera, Zoe Saldaña, Diana Trujillo, Karime López, Dany Garcia, Selena Gomez, Jordan Chiles, and Eva Longoria, highlighting their remarkable achievements in entertainment, science, culinary arts, business, sports, and media.
This annual event serves not only as a celebration but as an essential platform for amplifying the voices and stories of Latina women, furthering the mission of ¡HOLA! Americas in honoring and showcasing the cultural impact and contributions of Latina figures. As we approach the gala, we invite everyone to visit
