It’s official: Lainey Wilson is back to host the CMA Awards!
The CMA and ABC announced that the 12-time CMA Award winner will return to host the 60th Annual CMA Awards, marking her third consecutive year at the helm of the show and her second time hosting solo. Wilson previously shared hosting duties with Peyton Manning and Luke Bryan during her first year.
The news was announced over the weekend as Wilson returned to her home state of Louisiana for an appearance on ESPN’s “College GameDay.” The appearance coincided with the show’s milestone 500th episode, which was broadcast on the road from Louisiana State University.

Lainey Wilson Says the 60th Anniversary Show Will Be “Extra Special”
“I couldn’t be more excited to be hosting the CMA Awards again this year, especially with it being the 60th anniversary,” says Wilson. “I’ve had so much fun hosting the last two years, and this one’s going to be extra special. Can’t wait to see y’all in November!”
When Are the 2026 CMA Awards?
The milestone 60th Annual CMA Awards will air live from Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena on Wednesday, November 18, at 8/7c on ABC and Disney+, with the broadcast available to stream on Hulu the following day.
Tickets for the 60th Annual CMA Awards go on sale Friday, September 18, at CMAworld.com/tickets.
When Will the 2026 CMA Awards Nominees Be Announced?

The nominations will first be announced on ABC’s “Good Morning America,” followed by a livestream on the CMA’s official YouTube channel beginning at 8 a.m. CT.
How Are CMA Awards Nominees and Winners Chosen?
The CMA Awards are decided by more than 7,000 members of the Country Music Association who represent a wide range of roles and areas within the country music industry. Because the honors are voted on by industry peers, receiving a CMA Award nomination or win carries a special significance, recognizing the artists, songwriters and industry professionals whose work continues to influence country music and connect with audiences around the world.

Garth Brooks is keeping fans on their toes when it comes to his 2026 “Blame It All On My Roots” Arena Tour. Rather than announcing the full tour at once, the country music icon is revealing each city one at a time, with some stops receiving multiple nights.
Earlier today, Brooks announced plans to bring the tour to Salt Lake City, Utah, marking the sixth stop on the arena tour. He will perform at the Delta Center on Friday, October 9, and Saturday, October 10.
With this tour, the “Friends in Low Places” singer has promised to keep concert tickets affordable by offering every ticket at the same price, regardless of where the seat is located in the venue. Whether fans are seated in the front, back or anywhere in between, every seat is the same price.

Tickets are $154 each, including the $140 ticket price, $4 facility fee and $10 service charge, plus applicable taxes. With both end-stage and in-the-round seating configurations, Brooks is making sure every seat in the house comes with the same price.
“Let’s talk for a moment about the cost to go to a concert,” the Oklahoma native previously shared. “There’s the ticket price. Currently, the average country concert ticket price is $175. That’s the average. Dang! You never go alone, so double it, at least. Parking? Want a T-shirt or two? Maybe dinner? You are looking at one expensive evening,” he explained.
By taking control of the ticket pricing for the tour, Brooks hopes to make his shows accessible to the fans who have supported him throughout his career, regardless of their budgets or financial circumstances.

“We have always chosen to do the one overall ticket price simply based on this thought: Where you sit in the arena shouldn’t depend on how much you can afford,” he explained. “It should be all just luck of the draw.”
The “Blame It All On My Roots” Arena Tour also marks the return of Brooks’ iconic Drum Pod, a signature element of his live shows.
Throughout the tour, Brooks brings his biggest hits to the stage, turning arenas across the country into massive sing-alongs.
