Ticket pre-sales for next year’s event are available July 30th

Country Music fans can get a jump start on summer plans for 2019. Tickets for CMA Fest will be available for pre-sale Monday, July 30th at 10 am CT. Fans must register through Friday, July 27th for Ticketmaster’s Verified Fan, which allows fans the first opportunity to purchase the best seats during the pre-sale, eliminating bots and broker accounts. The general on-sale will open Monday, August 6th at 10 am CT at CMAfest.com or by calling the CMA Box Office at 1-800-CMA-FEST. CMA Fest 2019 takes place Thursday, July 6th through Sunday, July 9th in Downtown Nashville.

CMA Fest, the longest-running country music festival in the world, took over downtown Nashville just last month with more than 300 acts performing on 11 official stages and visitors attending from all 50 states, Puerto Rico and 36 international countries. Thanks to each and every artist donating their time, CMA Fest ticket proceeds go directly to helping enrich and sustain music education programs across the country through CMA’s non-profit arm, the CMA Foundation.

The festival is filmed for a three-hour special, CMA Fest, which is hosted by Thomas Rhett and Kelsea Ballerini and airs Wednesday, August 8th at 8 pm ET/PT on the ABC Television Network. This year marks the 15th consecutive year of the broadcast.
