55th ACM Awards Postponed
• The 55th Academy of Country Music Awards™ show, which was scheduled to air live from Las Vegas on Sunday, April 5 has postponed and rescheduled to air on CBS in September, at a date, time and venue TBD. As the press release states, “The health and safety of our artists, fans, industry, staff and partners is our No. 1 priority.”
In a statement, Damon Whiteside, CEO of the Academy of Country Music, said, “The ACM Awards® is a tentpole event for our Country Music industry, and the Academy of Country Music® and dick clark productions went to great lengths to find a safe solution for the show to go on so that we can honor our artist community. This decision involved many partners, stakeholders and the industry, who we have been in constant conversations with over the past several days as the situation has developed. We look forward to identifying a future date that we can celebrate with our Country community safely.”
Refunds will be issued for tickets purchased for the ACM Awards and ACM Party for a Cause® events, including ACM Lifting Lives® Topgolf Tee-Off and ACM Beach Bash. Please monitor the ACM website and social accounts for information on how to claim your refund.
