The Academy of Country Music has revealed the first batch of artists set to take the stage during this year’s award ceremony. Lainey Wilson, Eric Church, and Blake Shelton are among the acts who will perform at the 60th annual ACM Awards, which are set for May 8.

Wilson, who won the coveted title of Entertainer of the Year at last year’s awards, will return to perform a still-to-be-revealed track. Church will also mark the start of a new career chapter with his performance, which will arrive just one week after the release of his upcoming album, Evangeline Vs. The Machine. Shelton will also appear during a transitional period, sparked by his recent move to BBR Music Group’s Wheelhouse Records and the arrival of his current single, “Texas.”

The trio of country stars will join Reba McEntire, who will return as host for the sixteenth time, on stage at the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas for the special celebration. This year’s group of nominees will be revealed this Thursday, March 27, and additional performers are set to be announced in the coming weeks.

For a limited time, fans who want to experience the 60th annual ACM Awards in person can snag tickets to the event via SeatGeek. Otherwise, viewers can stream the awards live exclusively via Amazon Prime Video and the Amazon Music channel on Twitch, beginning on May 8, 2025, at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT.
