About the Caribbean Music Awards
The purpose of the Caribbean Music Awards is to recognize and award individuals in the Caribbean diaspora who have made significant contributions to music, entertainment, humanitarian efforts, sports, and other fields. This annual event is hosted in person, selecting a new location each year, including in the Caribbean Islands. This will help to showcase the unique culture of each island and give us the opportunity to work collaboratively with many Caribbean brands, creatives, and entertainers. It is because of the immense talent of the Caribbean diaspora that we thought it imperative to award and spotlight the incredible talent and achievements of the past, celebrate present day contributors, and provide incentives to keep providing exceptional content, staying true to the rich culture and encourage innovation.
