The upcoming construction of a new stadium for the Tennessee Titans indicates that CMA Fest may undergo significant changes in the near future.
The festival's main shows have been held at Nissan Stadium for many years, but they will be relocated to a new venue once it is finished.
The Country Music Association says they will keep collaborating with the Tennessee Titans during CMA Fest each year. 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 near the current Nissan Stadium on the East Bank of the Cumberland River. Building is planned to start this year, and the stadium is expected to open in 2027.
Fans of country music can still get to the New Nissan Stadium from downtown Nashville by using the John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge.
The Titans' new stadium will be enclosed and focused on providing fans with an exceptional experience. It will offer panoramic views of Nashville, a see-through roof, and 12,000 square feet of community space that can be utilized throughout the year.
CMA Fest, previously known as Fan Fair, is a popular event for country music fans that started in 1972. It began with a small gathering of 5,000 fans at Nashville's Municipal Auditorium and has now 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 stages.
The CMA Fest 2024 event will take place from June 6-9 in the heart of Nashville
