NEW YORK, Oct. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The National Football League (NFL) has teamed up with Remezcla Media Group, the leading Hispanic digital and print media group in the U.S., for a strategic partnership that will help grow the league's Hispanic fan base.

Through this strategic partnership, Remezcla Media Group will have access to key NFL tentpole events such as the NFL Draft and Super Bowl LIX, enabling the creation of original influencer-led, social, and experiential campaigns.

Remezcla's storytelling will capture the vibrant fan experience, weaving together elements of music, food, fashion, and culture surrounding the game. The first content pieces will be distributed across Remezcla Media Group's platforms in the coming weeks.

The league will also benefit from a dedicated content distribution network through Remezcla Media Group's unparalleled reach which includes 500+ curated publisher partners, including Remezcla, one of the most influential digital media brands for the Hispanic community, El Diario, the U.S.'s oldest Spanish-language newspaper, and HipLatina, dedicated to highlighting the diversity of the U.S. Latina experience.

"We have continued to emphasize global growth as a strategic priority. Witnessing our fanbase among the Hispanic community grow globally, we recognize the power and influence this culture represents," said Sarah Bishop, Vice President, Brand and Consumer Marketing, NFL. "This deal with Remezcla Media Group will not only allow us to reach and engage with our rapidly growing Hispanic fan base but also to do so authentically and with intention, growing the game and strengthening the connection between sports and culture."

The NFL has the largest Latino fan base in American sports with more than 39 million Latino fans and Latino viewership continues to grow in the U.S., up 11 percent in 2023. With a strong and passionate Latino fanbase, alongside numerous Latino players, coaches, and Legends, the NFL and its teams are committed to elevating Latino culture.
