Hosted by the global digital media company and bilingual content producer, the show will take place October 3 at the Gibson Amphitheatre with Gustavo Galindo and Akwid rounding out the lineup.

"The diverse lineup at the Terra Music Fest and the Live & Loud digital component will make Terra the access point to music both online and off," said Fernando Rodriguez, CEO, Terra USA. "As we continue to offer interactive initiatives to engage our audience, we are excited to introduce this new music platform."


The online hub for exclusive concerts, upcoming chats, unique showcases and all other live events hosted by Terra, Live & Loud is designed to make Terras audience feel closer to their favorite artists. The platform was developed as part of Terras renewed focus on the entertainment and music arena, which has recently brought fans a series of live chats with artists including Daddy Yankee, Tito El Bambino, Alejandro Sanz and Diego Torres and live concerts like Wisin y Yandels La Revolucion World Tour. Current and upcoming performers on the Live & Loud platform include Don Omar, Jenny Rivera and Ivy Queen.

The Terra Fest is presented by Ford. As partners, Terra & Ford will celebrate music and Hispanic Heritage Month with this loyal demographic-whose buying power is forecasted to hit $1,386.2 billion by 2013 and of which 10.3 percent are planning to buy a new vehicle within the next six months (53 percent more likely than the U.S. total population).* This alliance will offer attendees an interactive and unique experience in celebration of their roots and will build a tradition for the Hispanics living in United States.

"Terra has created a unique entertainment program that delivers on the passion that our target has for music," said Dave Rodriguez, Ford Motor Company, Multicultural Marketing Manager. "Ford is excited to partner with Terra and to generate high engagement with the brand, both on-site and online."

The IAB also released “U.S. Latinos Online: A Driving Force,” a comprehensive presentation that uses multiple data sources to describe the Hispanic online population, identify the trends and key dynamics in this increasingly important advertising target and provide a resource for communicating with Latino online audience segments.

The IAB Multicultural Council, which replaces the former IAB Hispanic Committee, will focus on key issues that impact marketing and advertising within the multicultural marketplace including

* Audience measurement and ensuring that all segments of the U.S. population, especially minorities are properly measured and accounted for in online media measurement
* Educate marketers and agencies on how to create successful digital marketing strategies to reach multicultural markets
* Equip multicultural publishers and agencies with the tools necessary to address the needs of marketers who want to reach multicultural markets

“The work of this Council will drive a better understanding of the diverse populations and audiences that make up multicultural America and help marketers use interactive media to reach these market segments,” said Sherrill Mane, SVP, Industry Services, IAB. “The U.S. Latinos Online presentation that we are announcing today is just one example of the important work that the Multicultural Council will engage in on behalf of the industry.”

“The Multicultural Council will provide our industry with an important forum where we can work towards critical marketplace improvements. We also want to further our efforts in educating marketers and agencies to innovate and connect with this growing audience,” said Mark Lopez, Chief Operating Officer, Terra Networks, and Co-Chair of the IAB Multicultural Council. “The U.S. Latinos Online presentation is something we plan on updating quarterly so that it can be a resource for all industry stakeholders.”

“The IAB Multicultural Council and the Hispanic Research presentation will serve as an important forum for our advertising clients and partners to learn more about achieving maximum ROI in the Spanish-language market in an increasingly digital media environment,” said Borja Perez, Vice-President, Integrated Solutions And Digital Media, Telemundo.
