Filmed in Nashville in front of a live audience, the holiday special showcases one-of-a-kind musical performances of festive classics from country music’s biggest stars. CMA Country Christmas airs Thursday, December 14th from 8-9 pm ET/PT on ABC and the next day on Hulu and Disney+.

CMA partnered with Balsam Hill, who provided their beautifully realistic artificial Christmas trees and holiday décor to decorate the CMA Country Christmas stage again this year.

Starting in 2010, CMA Country Christmas rings in the holiday season annually with a show full of festive classics and one-of-a-kind musical performances. The event is filmed in Nashville and airs each holiday season on ABC. ABC is the network home to the CMA Awards and CMA’s summer concert TV special CMA Fest.
