The iHeartRadio Fiesta Latina is a music festival sponsored by iHeartRadio. The inaugural 2014 edition was held on November 22 at The Forum in Inglewood, California, near Los Angeles.[1][2] It was produced in association with Live Nation Entertainment.[3] The festival is "a spin-off of the highly successful iHeartRadio Music Festival" dedicated to Latin music.[4][5]

The festival was supposed to happen simultaneously with the competing 2014 edition of the Calibash, 10 miles (16 km) across town at the Staples Center.[6] However, several days after the announcement of the iHeartRadio Fiesta Latina, it was decided that Calibash will be moved to January 24, 2015.[7] The music was broadcast live across the United States on various radio stations.[8][9] Official ticket prices through Ticketmaster ranged from $71.70 to $439.90.[10]
