The Academy of Country Music announced the many country artists who will be performing at the upcoming virtual event: Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert, Tim McGraw, Maren Morris, Old Dominion, Thomas Rhett and Jon Pardi, Jimmie Allen, Kelsea Ballerini, Gabby Barrett and more are expected to appear and perform.
The Academy is calling the virtual event a night of heart and hits live from Nashville. This will be the first time in the show’s history that it will be held in Nashville. The show will still be hosted by Keith Urban, as originally planned. The performances and awards presentations will be broadcast live from the Grand Ole Opry House, the Ryman Auditorium and the Bluebird Cafe.
The ACM Awards will be broadcast on September 16 on CBS, and will be available to stream on demand on CBS All Access.
