The Country Music Association just announced the star-studded lineup of performers that will fill the stages throughout this year’s CMA Fest, kicking off Thursday, June 5, and running through Sunday, June 8.
Downtown Nashville will transform into a sea of cowboy hats for four days and nights of live music, with emerging acts and rising stars lighting up stages along Broadway and the Cumberland River. Meanwhile, some of the biggest names in country music can be found at Nissan Stadium each night, offering never-before-seen collaborations and surprise performances and more.
All artists set to perform will appear for free in support of the CMA Foundation, with a portion of ticket sales benefitting high-quality music education programs across the U.S. The event will also once again be filmed for a national television special to air on ABC and Hulu this summer.
