CMA Fest presented by SoFi returns to downtown Nashville June 4th through 7th, and the Nissan Stadium lineup is out now. Four-night stadium passes are on sale at CMAfest.com/tickets. The festival draws an estimated 95,000 daily attendees and has been running continuously since 1972, making it the longest-running country music festival in the world. This year marks the 23rd consecutive year a CMA Fest television special will air on ABC and Hulu.
The Nissan Stadium nights feature Bailey Zimmerman, Blake Shelton, Carly Pearce, Cody Johnson, Deana Carter, Ella Langley, Gretchen Wilson, HARDY, Jason Aldean, Jordan Davis, Keith Urban, Luke Bryan, The Red Clay Strays, Riley Green, Russell Dickerson, Shaboozey, Tim McGraw, Tucker Wetmore, and Zach Top. The Band Perry and Stephen Wilson Jr. bring mid-field performances to the stadium floor. Additional performers across the Nissan Stadium and Platform stages will be announced in the coming weeks.
Beyond the stadium shows, CMA Fest takes over the streets of downtown Nashville with hundreds of performances across multiple stages and fan experiences throughout all four days. The television special will once again be executive produced and written by Robert Deaton and directed by Alan Carter. Media credential applications are open at CMApress.com through April 10th at 5 pm CT.
A portion of ticket proceeds supports the CMA Foundation’s music education programs nationwide, a commitment that has run through every edition of the festival. The Foundation, established in 2011, funds professional development for music teachers, classroom resources, and student programs across the country.
