There are changes on the horizon for CMA Fest, as the Tennessee Titans will be getting a new stadium in the near future. This means that the current format of CMA Fest may not be the same for much longer.
The main shows of the festival have been held at Nissan Stadium for a few years, but they will be relocated to the new venue once it is finished.
The Country Music Association has expressed their intention to collaborate with the Tennessee Titans annually during CMA Fest. They are excited to invite country music fans to Nashville for the evening concerts at the new stadium.
A new stadium called the New Nissan Stadium will be constructed east of the current Nissan Stadium on the East Bank of the Cumberland River. The building of the stadium is planned to start this year, and it is expected to be open to the public in 2027.
Fans of country music can still get to the New Nissan Stadium from downtown Nashville by using the John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge.
In contrast to where the Titans currently play, the new stadium will be covered and designed to provide fans with a more enjoyable experience. It will offer sweeping views of Nashville, a see-through roof, and a large community area that can be utilized throughout the year.
CMA Fest is an event that offers country music fans the ultimate experience and started in 1972 under the name Fan Fair. It began with 5,000 fans gathering at Nashville's Municipal Auditorium and has since grown into one of the largest annual events in country music. Every year, tens of thousands of guests from around the world come to Music City to watch over 250 performances on nine different stages.
