The 59th ACM Awards will mark a return to Frisco, Texas for the second consecutive year, after a triumphant debut in 2023.

The 2023 show, hosted by Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks, was a two-hour concert event which streamed live globally on Prime Video and the Amazon Music channel on Twitch. The night featured an all-star lineup of memorable moments, including 18 show-stopping performances from 25 artists, along with exclusive collaborations and unexpected moments that captivated fans worldwide. In the lead-up to the show, the Official ACM Awards Red Carpet Show streamed live on Prime, giving fans the party before the party and access to all the excitement from the carpet, along with special performances.

The Academy’s highest honor, ACM Entertainer of the Year, was awarded to Chris Stapleton for the first time. His multiple wins at the 58th ACM Awards qualified him for the coveted ACM Triple Crown Award, celebrating artists who have won New Female/Male Artist of the Year, Female/Male Artist of the Year, and Entertainer of the Year. HARDY and Lainey Wilson led the night in total wins with four each, followed by Cole Swindell with three wins.

The 59th Academy of Country Music Awards is produced by Dick Clark Productions.
