CMA Awards 2024

Date: Wednesday, November 20, 2024

Location: Bridgestone Arena, Nashville, Tennessee

Presenters: TBA

Tickets: Here

Leading Nominees: Morgan Wallen (7 Nominations), Cody Johnson (5 Nominations), Chris Stapleton (5 Nominations), Post Malone (4 Nominations) & Lainey Wilson (4 Nominations)

On November 20, the biggest stars from across the country music landscape will once again arrive at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena, as the 2024 CMA Awards Ceremony takes place.

Morgan Wallen leads the way in terms of nominations, picking up seven nods including another nomination for Entertainer of the Year. If Wallen was to win, it would be the first time he's received the most coveted award of the night.

Trailing behind Wallen with the most nominations are Cody Johnson and Chris Stapleton, who both received five nods each, and current Entertainer of the Year Lainey Wilson, who notched four on her belt. Perhaps the biggest news of the announcement was that Post Malone was nominated for the first time - he also picked up four nods for the night.

What with Malone and Wallen receiving various nods for their Song of the Summer 'I Had Some Help', their songwriting partners and producers also picked up first time nominations. Louis Bell, Charlie Handsome and Hoskins all picked up their first three nominations for their hand in the massive hit.

Another big surprise in the announcement was the recognition of Kacey Musgraves' recent album, Deeper Well. Despite any question around it's classification as a country album, Musgraves received three nods, including Female Vocalist of the Year.

There are also first time nominations for Holler favourites The Red Clay Strays and Zach Top, who were given nods in the Vocal Group of the Year and New Artist of the Year categories respectively.
