What’s can we expect

The Country Music Association has announced that ABC will air “CMA Fest,” the summer’s biggest music festival, at 8 p.m. on Wednesday, July 19. Dierks Bentley, Elle King, and Lainey Wilson will host the three-hour primetime concert special, which will film in Nashville later this week during CMA Fest’s historic 50th anniversary.

The “CMA Fest” TV special will showcase performances and unexpected collaborations from some of Country Music’s most popular artists, many of which have never been broadcast publicly before. In the coming weeks, we will be able to see the performances.

The Country Music Association puts on the “CMA Fest” each year. Alan Carter directed the film he wrote and produced with Robert Deaton. CMA’s 20th annual summer concert special will air in 2023.
