The Latin Grammy Award for Best Norteño Album is an honor presented annually at the Latin Grammy Awards, a ceremony that recognizes excellence and creates a wider awareness of cultural diversity and contributions of Latin recording artists in the United States and internationally.[1]

The award goes to solo artists, duos, or groups for releasing vocal or instrumental albums containing at least 51% of new recordings in the norteño genre.[2]

Los Tigres del Norte are the most awarded performers with four accolades in this category and they were also the first recipient of this award in 2000 for the album Herencia de Familia.[3] Other multiple winners are Ramón Ayala y Sus Bravos Del Norte and Grupo Pesado both winners in two years in a row from 2001 to 2002 and 2009 to 2010 respectively.
