Global Latin music icon Daddy Yankee will headline the MotoGP Awards ceremony in Valencia on Sunday night. Fresh off the success of his latest track, “Sonríele,” which recently topped the Billboard Latin airplay chart in the USA, Daddy Yankee is set to deliver a show-stopping live performance following the awards at Circuit Ricardo Tormo — the first time the annual end-of-season celebration will be held trackside.
Before the top performers of the 2025 season are honored, DJ Nano will kick off the festivities with a pre-event set starting at 16:00, ahead of the ceremony, which begins at 18:30. Daddy Yankee will then take the stage to close out the celebration.
More than 1,500 fans will attend the Awards in person, witnessing history as Marc Marquez (Ducati Lenovo Team) collects his seventh MotoGP World Championship trophy after achieving the greatest sporting comeback in history. 2025 runner up Alex Marquez (BK8 Gresini Racing MotoGP) will take to the stage, as well as whoever wins the battle for bronze – now down to Marco Bezzecchi (Aprilia Racing) vs Pecco Bagnaia (Ducati Lenovo Team) – and winners from Rookie of the Year to team champions and more.
If you can’t be there, don’t worry – the show will be broadcast across MotoGP’s social media channels, as well as on motogp.com and select broadcast partners. The gala begins at 18:30 and runs until 19:30 (UTC +1).
Before the curtain rises on the gala, the spotlight will first shine on the sport’s rising stars, as trophies are presented to standout performers from MotoMini, WorldWCR, and MotoE from 17:00, as well as some team prizes for Moto2 and Moto3.
The main show will then see the MotoGP award winners joined by the Moto2 and Moto3 Champions and podium finishers – followed by Daddy Yankee’s incredible live performance.
2025’s MotoGP World Championship was one for the history books, and those who helped make it an unforgettable campaign will take centre stage. Make sure you join us then!
