The Hispanic Heritage Foundation (HHF) announces the historic Hispanic Heritage Awards (HHAs) will take place at the venerable, 100-year-old, Warner Theater in Washington, D.C., on September 4, 2025.
The HHAs were established by The White House in 1988 to commemorate the creation of Hispanic Heritage Month in America and are recognized as “America’s Hispanic Heritage Month Celebration” and supported by 40 national, Latino-serving institutions. The HHAs recognize Latino accomplishment, vision, and cultural pride.
“We are thrilled to announce that the Hispanic Heritage Awards will take place on September 4th at the marvelous Warner Theatre in Washington, D.C.,” said Antonio Tijerino, President and CEO of the Hispanic Heritage Foundation. “At a time when presenting the value proposition Latinos provide America and the world in the past, present and future is critical – we look forward to telling the inspiring stories of our 2025 Honorees and pay tribute to our community through dynamic performances.”
The historic HHAs, broadcast nationally on PBS, are not only considered among the highest honors for Latinos by Latinos but honor excellence in a variety of categories and disciplines as community and business leaders, entrepreneurs, STEM-related impactors, educators, innovators, and youth stand alongside celebrities and cultural icons.
