During last year’s ACM Awards, George Strait and Dallas Cowboys’ owner Jerry Jones announced that this year’s show, the 50th anniversary of the awards, would be held at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. For the last 10 years, the ACM Awards have been held in Las Vegas, and several folks, including Lady Antebellum and Keith Urban, think it will be a huge night.
“I think it’s gonna be crazy. I think it’s gonna be unreal, so exciting,” says Lady A’s Charles Kelley. “It’s going to be so electric.”
Keith Urban agrees. “It’s gonna be huge. I really do. As soon as I heard we were taking it to Dallas, I just knew it was gonna be a spectacular night.”
The show is sold-out, and ticketholders also gain access to concerts April 17th and 18th at next-door venue, Globe Life Park (where the Texas Rangers play).
The 50th Annual ACM Awards, hosted by Luke Bryan and Blake Shelton, will be broadcast live from AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas at 8pm ET on CBS.
