Prime Video, the Academy of Country Music (ACM), and Dick Clark Productions announced in a press release Tuesday that the 60th annual ACM Awards will take place May 8, 2025, at Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas. The show will stream on Prime Video.
Country music star and 16-time ACM Award winner Reba McEntire will host the ceremony for the 18th time. Additional details, including nominees and performers, will be confirmed in the coming months. Said McEntire: “I’m thrilled to be coming back to host the 60th ACM Awards on Prime Video. It’s going to be an absolute can’t miss show and I can’t wait to see everybody back in Texas!”
ACM CEO Damon Whiteside added: “We’re so excited to honor and celebrate the legacy of the ACM Awards all year long surrounding the 60th anniversary show returning to Amazon Prime Video next May. Reba McEntire has hosted more ACM Awards shows than any other artist in history, and after her triumphant return this year for the 59th show, there is clearly no one better suited to helm this milestone show! Our landmark 50th anniversary show in 2015 marked our debut in Texas, and we’re thrilled to return again to celebrate another major moment in ACM history. We look forward to seeing our industry, artists, and fans celebrate in Frisco, Texas, next may for an unforgettable week!”
