The New Mexico Entertainment Awards (NMEA) nomination process is officially underway and it’s all about celebrating the exceptional talent and creativity that make New Mexico’s entertainment and events scene so vibrant. From now until March 1st, the New Mexico community has the opportunity to nominate your favorite local artists, businesses, and events across various categories—but there’s a new twist this year: a $10 nomination fee has been introduced to help support the growth and sustainability of this beloved event.


The New Mexico Entertainment Awards were created to recognize and honor the diverse talents that enrich the Land of Enchantment. From filmmakers and musicians to venues and festivals, the awards showcase the very best New Mexico has to offer. By nominating your favorites, you’re not just celebrating their achievements—you’re helping to highlight the importance of local talent and encouraging the community to continue thriving.


The introduction of the $10 nomination fee serves a dual purpose: it supports the operational costs of running the awards and ensures the event continues to grow and evolve in the years to come. Every nomination represents an investment in the creative community and demonstrates a commitment to acknowledging and uplifting local talent.


Nominating is simple. Visit the official NMEA website at the New Mexico Entertainment Awards to explore the categories and submit your nominations. The nomination form is user-friendly, allowing you to quickly and easily vote for your favorite entertainers and establishments. Remember, nominations close on March 1st, so don’t wait too long to share your input!

Community input is crucial in ensuring that every nomination and vote represents the true spirit of New Mexico. Your participation—whether through nominating, attending, or spreading the word—is what keeps this event alive and thriving.


Local talent often faces unique challenges, from limited resources to competition with larger markets. By supporting initiatives like the NMEA, you’re helping to create a platform that amplifies voices, celebrates diversity, and fosters growth within the entertainment industry.
