· The only award show for the people and by the people, the "People's Choice Country Awards" will recognize the biggest and best country music has to offer chosen entirely by the fans across various categories. Several honorary awards will also be bestowed during the awards ceremony.

· The "People's Choice Country Awards" will extend to social platforms with All-Access Live bringing fans at home behind the scenes as well as interactively connecting country's most popular stars with their biggest fans.

· "We're excited to partner with the Grand Ole Opry to bring the year's biggest celebration in country music to Nashville," said Cassandra Tryon, Senior Vice President, Live Events, NBCUniversal Television & Streaming. "Country fans are passionate about their music and there's no better place to host this event than from country music's biggest stage."

· The telecast is produced by Den of Thieves with Jesse Ignjatovic, Evan Prager and Barb Bialkowski serving as Executive Producers

· The 2022 "People's Choice Awards," which aired across NBC and E!, bucked industry trends with year-over-year ratings growth on the broadcast network, and delivered 173 million total engagements across linear, digital and social platforms.
