The Country Music Association has just announced the star-studded lineup of performers that will fill stages throughout this year’s CMA Fest.

Kicking off Thursday, June 5, and running through Sunday, June 8, the world’s longest-running Country Music festival promises an unforgettable experience for fans worldwide.

Downtown Nashville will transform into the ultimate destination for four days and nights of incredible 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. With performances spanning 10 stages and hundreds of artists stepping into the spotlight, this is a can’t-miss event for music lovers everywhere.

For the first time, CMA Fest has joined forces with SoFi as its presenting sponsor, kicking off a multi-year partnership as the festival’s official bank and financial services provider.

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.
