History

To reward the best Ibero-American films of each year, the Entidad de Gestión de Derechos de los Productores Audiovisuales along with the Federación Iberoamericana de Productores Cinematográficos y Audiovisuales decided to create the Platino Awards. The inaugural ceremony took place on 5 April 2014 at the Anayasi theatre in Panama City. The Awards were created as a window to show and promote Ibero-America´s cinematography around the world.

Awards

As of 2026, 35 competitive categories are presented, plus an Honorary Award. Usually, four nominees are announced per category though an additional nominee can be added in the case of ties during the voting stage.
During the first edition, nine film categories were presented. An award for miniseries and television series was introduced for the fourth edition, with further television categories destined to performances being added the following edition. In 2026, a major addition to the awards was announced, with
twelve categories being introduced, these being mainly technical awards for both film and television productions. The award for Best Ibero-American Co-Production remains as the only discontinued award, being presented only during the first edition of the award.
