The 43rd Annual Tejano Music Awards ceremony was held on October 21, 2023, at the Boeing Center at Tech Port in San Antonio, Texas.[1] Those who performed at the ceremony were Siggno, Ricardo Castillon, Isabel Marie, Angelica y Moneda, Grupo Asalto, Suenatron, and Paula DeAnda.

On September 28, 2023, it was announced that Mazz co-founder and vocalist Joe López and songwriter Humberto Ramón would receive Lifetime Achievement Awards,[2] but this honor was rescinded for López on October 18 after public outcry about his 2006–2018 incarceration for sexual assault.[3] The 2023 Tejano Music Awards Fan Fair that preceded the awards ceremony, drew 125,000 people during the four-day event. More than 100 musicians performed during the event.[4]

The biggest winners were Jesse Turner of Siggno (Male Vocalist of the Year and Tejano Album of the Year), and Mike González and the Iconiczz (Best New Group and Best New Female Artist for Di Marie). With five nominations, Monica Saldivar was the most nominated artist. Destiny Navaira earned her second Tejano Music Award for Female Vocalist of the Year, her last time was at the 41st Tejano Music Awards in 2021.

Winners are listed first, highlighted in boldface, and indicated with a double dagger (‡).[5]
