Camila Cabello landed on the Billboard Hot 100 with “First Man,” a song dedicated to her father Alejandro, who broke down in tears when she wowed the Grammys with a live performance in 2020. Next week, she’ll turn her attention to her grandmother, Mercedes, when she takes the stage at Carlos Eric Lopez’s fifth annual Día de Muertos Gala in Los Angeles.

Set to take place at a private location on Oct. 30, the event celebrates culture, family and community by honoring “trailblazers who have paved the way for the recent surge in global recognition of Mexican and Latino American artistic contributions.” As such, Cabello will present the Abuelita Award to her author grandmother “as an acknowledgement for the role she’s played in Camila’s life and her appreciation of her Latino heritage.”
