New Latin Albums in 2026: Music Release Calendar

The start of a new year is brining a wave of excitement in the world of Latin music and beyond. Artists are dropping hints about new projects, rumors of collaborations start swirling, and release dates begin to fill up the calendar. But there’s always a bit of unpredictability in the mix — whether it’s unexpected delays or last-minute album announcements, keeping up with everything can be tricky. Luckily, we’ve got you covered with all the must-know info on the most anticipated Latin music releases of 2026.

One of the standout releases kicking off the year so far is the highly anticipated new album from Nicky Jam, titled Bohemio, which he confirmed via IG in December and is set to drop later this month. This marks his first project under Virgin Music Latin after a decade of working with Sony Music. The album represents a new chapter in the Puerto Rican star’s career, and he has promised fans a project full of fresh elements and new vibes.

But when it comes to big comebacks, we can’t overlook Colombian star Juanes, who is set to release an album in March. Of course, those aren’t the only major releases on the horizon. The legendary Juan Gabriel will drop the posthumous Los Dúo (Track by Track), while artists like Mariachi El Bronx, Timø, and Cimafunk are also gearing up to make waves with their upcoming projects.

To make things easier for you, we’ve organized this calendar by month and week, with a special section for albums that have been confirmed but don’t yet have an exact release date. Don’t forget to check back for updates with the latest announcements.
