Due to the Latin Grammys being held at Sevilla’s Palacio de Congresos y Exposiciones Convention Center, ANCCE has been forced to postpone its International PRE Trade Fair, SICAB 2023, a week, with the event now starting on Tuesday 28 November and running until Sunday 3 December 2023.

At the most recent meeting held with Seville's mayor Antonio Muñoz, ANCCE was informed that the Andalusian Regional Government had signed a three-year sponsorship agreement with the Latin Recording Academy to hold several events in Andalusia, with Sevilla being positioned as a candidate city to host the Latin Grammies this upcoming November at FIBES. Thus, both the dates and the actual venue where SICAB is held will be occupied by this international event.

In the light of this mandatory change of dates, the ANCCE Executive Committee has reached an agreement with Sevilla City Hall to hold the event from 28 November to 3 December 2023.

"All efforts have been made to keep the date as closely as possible to the traditional dates, as neither October nor December is a suitable month for SICAB," ANCCE stated. "These new dates translate into the speedy dismantling of the Latin Grammy Awards while ANCCE will have to implement a fast-track organization and set-up so that everything is ready on Sunday, the 26 th of November, which, if everything goes smoothly, is when horses enter the stables at FIBES."

"Within the scope of this organisational change for both ANCCE and SICAB, we understand that the newly established dates are the best option for breeders, professionals and guests," ANCCE stated.
