The upcoming construction of a new stadium for the Tennessee Titans means that the future of CMA Fest will undergo significant changes.
Although the festival has been held at Nissan Stadium for many years, the headlining shows will be relocated to a new venue once it is finished.
The Country Music Association plans to collaborate with the Tennessee Titans every year during CMA Fest. They are excited to invite country music fans to Nashville for the nightly concerts at the new stadium.
A new stadium called the New Nissan Stadium will be constructed on the East Bank of the Cumberland River, located east of the current Nissan Stadium. The construction is planned to start this year and the stadium is expected to open in 2027.
Fans of country music will still have access to the New Nissan Stadium from downtown Nashville by crossing the John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge.
The new stadium for the Titans will be indoors and focused on providing fans with an improved experience. It will offer views of Nashville, a see-through roof, and a large community space that can be utilized throughout the year.
