Lucky for country fans, the ACM Awards are one of the few award shows that people can buy tickets for, so fans can get in on all the action. If you’re looking to buy official tickets to the show, you’ll want to go via AXS.com. A quick look through the website and you’ll find pricing for as low as $131.41 for upper sections.
As you go down the map of the arena provided, pricing goes up to $903; however, we’ve seen closer seating around the floor for $430.71, which is a steal given how close to the stage you’d be. Of course, floor seating is going to be the most expensive at around $1,563 and above, depending on the seating chosen.
This year’s nominees are a star-studded bunch, featuring well-known names like Luke Combs, Jelly Roll, Chris Stapleton, Morgan Wallen, Lainey Wilson, Kelsea Ballerini, Miranda Lambert and many more. Women dominated the nominees list this year, racking up a slew of awards nods, including Megan Moroney, who leads the top four with nine nods, followed by Lambert at eight and Langley and Wilson with seven each. This marks the second year in a row that female solo acts have led the nominations. Host Twain is a three-time ACM Awards winner.
You’ll want to keep your eye out for categories like Entertainer of the Year, with nominees like Wilson going up against superstars Wallen and Jelly Roll, along with the Song of the Year field with fierce competition from Moroney, Lambert, and Langley.
