The Premios de la Academia de Música (Music Academy Awards in English) are an annual music ceremony destined to reward outstanding achievements in Spanish music. Presented by the Academia de la Música de España (ACAMUS), they serve as a continuation for the Premios Amigo, Premios de la Música, and Premios Odeón, which have been the main awards ceremony for Spanish music releases over the years.
The first edition of the awards took place at IFEMA Palacio Municipal in Madrid, Spain, on 10 June 2024, presenting a total of 43 categories.
Background From 1997 to 2007, Spanish music was recognized annually through the Premios Amigo, presented by the Sociedad General de Autores y Editores (SGAE) and the Autor Foundation, in collaboration with Sociedad de Artistas Intérpretes o Ejecutantes de España (AIE) and Productores de Música de España (PROMUSICAE). Simultaneously, the Premios de la Música were also presented by SGAE and AIE, held from 1997 to 2011. In 2020, the awards were merged into the Premios Odeón, organized by the previously mentioned entities in addition to the Asociación de Gestión de Derechos Intelectuales (AGEDI). These awards were presented from 2020 to 2023.
In 2001, SGAE and AIE created the Academia de las Artes y las Ciencias de la Música, which was in charge of organizing the Premios de la Música. After 2011, the awards were discontinued and the academy remained inactive until 2024, when it was renewed into the Academia de la Música de España. Hosted by Abril Zamora, Andrea Guasch, Ángel Carmona, and Johann Wald, the inaugural edition of the Premios de la Academia de Música were held at IFEMA Palacio Municipal in Madrid, Spain, on 10 June 2024. Spanish band Arde Bogotá was both the most awarded and nominated artist of the ceremony, with six wins out of nine nominations.
