The Latin Grammy Award for Best Christian Album (Spanish Language) is an award for Latin Christian music given every year since the 5th Latin Grammy Awards ceremony, which took place at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles.[1] The award goes to solo artists, duos, or groups for releasing vocal or instrumental Spanish Christian albums containing at least 51% of new recordings.[2]

In 2002 and 2003 the category was named Best Christian Album and rewarded the Christian albums in Spanish and Portuguese.[3] In 2004, the category was split into two depending on the language, with Portuguese language releases being awarded in the Best Christian Album (Portuguese Language) category ever since.

Since the creation of this category, Marcos Witt has been awarded the most out of any other artist, with six wins, followed by Alex Campos with five.[4]

Winners and nominees[edit]

Brasilian musician Marcelo Rossi was the first winner of this category in 2000 when there was only one category for christian albums that included both spanish and portuguese.
Mexican singer Marcos Witt has won this award six times, in 2003, 2004, 2006, 2007, 2012 and 2022.
