Marc Anthony and Yandel honored as Agents of Change at Premios Juventud

TelevisaUnivision announced that the Premios Juventud awards will honor Latin music stars Marc Anthony and Yandel as "Agents of Change". The ceremony will take place on 3 September at the Starlite Amphitheatre in Marbella, Spain, marking the first edition of the awards in Europe as part of the PJ Fest program.

Marc Anthony is recognized for his Maestro Cares Foundation, which has launched more than 35 projects for children and vulnerable communities across Latin America and the United States, and for leading the benefit concert "Unidos por Venezuela" to aid earthquake reconstruction. Yandel is praised for his "Yandel Sinfónico" tour that blends reggaeton with orchestras, as well as his community, educational and mental‑health initiatives.

Both artists are also nominees for the awards—Anthony in three categories and Yandel in two. Voting for the 50 award categories is open until 10 August. The event will be broadcast live on Univision, UniMás, Galavisión, ViX, YouTube and Mexico’s Canal 5.
