In 2017, Gloria was the first Cuban American singer-songwriter to receive The Kennedy Center Honors. In 2015, On Your Feet! the Tony Award® nominated Broadway musical based on the lives and music of Emilio & Gloria Estefan debuted on Broadway. Serving as Executive Producer alongside her husband Emilio, the musical is the story of two people who — through an unwavering dedication to one another and their pursuit of the American dream — showcased their talent, music and heritage to the world in a remarkable rise to global superstardom.

Her newest album released in 2022, the Estefan Family Christmas album features Gloria alongside her daughter, Emily (27) and grandson, Sasha (10) and is one of the first albums of its kind to combine three generations.

With a resume that includes 19 GRAMMY Awards, Emilio has experimented and pushed the envelope of blending Latin, pop and world rhythms creating a unique style and personality that has created chart- topping worldwide hits. It is this vision that transcends the music field and spills over into film, television, hotels and restaurants, among other business endeavors including serving as the Executive Producer of the Tony-Award nominated smash Broadway musical, On Your Feet! Most recently, the Library of Congress honored Emilio and Gloria with the distinguished Gershwin Prize for Popular song.
