About CMA Fest
CMA Fest is the closest thing to a country music pilgrimage. Held across multiple Nashville venues with Nissan Stadium as the centrepiece, the festival offers unprecedented artist access — hundreds of meet-and-greet sessions, fan club parties, and surprise pop-up performances throughout Music City. The lineup covers every corner of country music from stadium headliners to emerging songwriters. The off-site shows at the Ryman, Grand Ole Opry, and Broadway honky-tonks make the entire city feel like one giant festival.
