In the near future, CMA Fest will undergo significant changes due to the upcoming construction of a new stadium for the Tennessee Titans.
After hosting the festival's main shows for a number of years, the current Nissan Stadium will no longer be the venue for these shows once the new venue is finished.
According to the Country Music Association, they have ongoing plans to collaborate with the Tennessee Titans annually during CMA Fest. They are excited about the prospect of hosting country music fans in Nashville for the evening concerts at the newly constructed stadium.
A brand new stadium, appropriately called the New Nissan Stadium, is going to be constructed on the eastern side of the existing Nissan Stadium, situated along the East Bank of the Cumberland River. The construction is planned to commence this year and the stadium is expected to open in 2027.
Fans of country music will still have the option to reach the New Nissan Stadium in downtown Nashville by utilizing the John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge.
In contrast to the Titans' current stadium, the upcoming venue will be a closed structure specifically designed to enhance the fan experience. It will offer stunning views of Nashville, feature a roof that allows natural light to filter through, and include a generous 12,000 square feet of community space that can be utilized throughout the year.
CMA Fest, previously known as Fan Fair, is a remarkable event for country music enthusiasts. It originated in 1972 with a mere 5,000 fans gathering at Nashville's Municipal Auditorium. Over time, it has grown into one of the largest annual events in country music, attracting tens of thousands of visitors from around the world. Attendees have the opportunity to witness over 250 performances by various artists on nine different stages in the vibrant city of Nashville.
