NASHVILLE— The longest-running Country Music festival in the world is back! Today, the Country Music Association announced the initial lineup for the 51st CMA Fest in downtown Nashville Thursday through Sunday, June 6-9.

From free outdoor performances throughout downtown Nashville to can’t-miss lineups at Nissan Stadium and Ascend Amphitheater, attendees can catch hundreds of artists across 10 stages throughout the four-day festival, take part in special meet-and-greet moments with artists at Fan Fair X inside Music City Center, and experience the many unique activations along Nashville’s iconic Broadway.
The nightly shows at Nissan Stadium will see some of the biggest stars in Country Music, including Kelsea Ballerini, Brothers Osborne, Luke Bryan, Jordan Davis, HARDY, Jelly Roll, Cody Johnson, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Ashley McBryde, Parker McCollum, Megan Moroney, Jon Pardi, Carly Pearce, The War And Treaty, Thomas Rhett, Keith Urban, Lainey Wilson and Bailey Zimmerman.

Single night tickets for the superstar-packed nightly concerts at Nissan Stadium will be available, starting at just $84 per night.
Parking availability is extremely limited.
