The upcoming 60th ACM Awards will be one for the record books. Fortunately, fans can now purchase tickets to be part of the action. The ceremony, which takes place on Thursday, May 8, will be hosted once again by Reba McEntire. The country music legend also hosted the ceremony last year.

"This year's ACM Awards is a celebration sixty years in the making," says ACM CEO Damon Whiteside. "We plan to make it one of the biggest and best shows yet! The 60th ACM Awards will mark our third consecutive year at Ford Center in The Star District, home of the Dallas Cowboys in Frisco, Texas.
"We can't wait to bring the ACM Awards back to the loyal Country Music fan base in Texas," he adds. "And to those watching all around the globe on Amazon Prime Video. With Reba at the helm as our host, we'll be commemorating the legends of country music while honoring the biggest and brightest stars of today.
Jerry Jones, Dallas Cowboys Owner, President, and General Manager, also weighs in on the monumental ceremony's prime location.
"The bar has been set very high during the first two years of hosting Country Music's Party of the Year," Jones says. "I think we all agree, though, that the upcoming Academy of Country Music Awards' 60th show is going to exceed that bar. Having an amazing icon of music and entertainment in Reba back for another year as host just sets this up to be one of the best ever and the Ford Center will be home to Country Music's biggest and brightest stars once again."
Reba McEntire Hosting
In July, it was revealed that McEntire would return to host the ceremony again in 2025. The upcoming ceremony will mark her 18th time as host of the ACM Awards.
"Hey everyone, it's Reba. If you watched this year's ACM Awards, you know I told you I'd be back to host again next year." McEntire
