New York City staging citywide celebrations for Latin Grammys

“The Latin Grammy Awards’ road to New York has been a lengthy one, stretching back at least three years. As the award show prepares for its seventh edition on November 2 at Madison Square Garden, city officials are promising to give it a “New York-size welcome.”

“We’re using the Latin Grammys as the impetus to make a celebration of everything Latino,” says Maureen Reidy, New York’s chief marketing officer and president/CEO of NYC Big Events. Mayor Michael Bloomberg created the agency after September 11, 2001, to attract world-class events to New York.”
