Miami Herald Stage, 24th Avenue North. "I was selected king of this year's festival by a committee of my peers, but I was definitely caught by surprise when they called me on Valentine's Day and told me. My jaw dropped. I was very surprised. This stage features Conjunto Progreso and represents tradition — Havana transplanted to Miami. This is a band that really makes it Little Havana."

Winn-Dixie Family Fun Zone, El Dorado Parking Lot. "Everybody knows I love to eat. Just look at me. This stage features Chef Pepín and his cooking demonstrations. He and I are good friends, and I'm a fan of food, so I'm a fan of Chef Pepín. This is where I'm gonna stop first, in the middle, and at the end of the day."
Univision, 27th Avenue East. "There's a full-day's lineup of performances and me with an orchestra as the headliner. It's the community stage, and Univision is a force in our community and the world. I worked there for many years. I'm proud of the work they're doing, and it shows the growth in Hispanic America. They just overtook ABC in the national ratings. These folks are serious. This stage is where salsa meets jazz. To me it's a highlight of the year."
