'CMA FEST' UNVEILS STAR-STUDDED PERFORMANCES FOR THREE-HOUR PRIMETIME CONCERT SPECIAL AIRING TUESDAY, JUNE 25, AT 8/7c ON ABC

Country Music Stars Jelly Roll and Ashley McBryde Host the Music Event of Summer

CMA Fest 2025 Passes on Sale Tuesday, June 25, at 10 A.M. CDT

"CMA Fest," the Music Event of Summer, is coming to a screen near you! The Country Music Association has revealed 30 star-studded performances featured in its "CMA Fest" primetime television special, hosted by Jelly Roll and Ashley McBryde, and airing Tuesday, June 25, at 8/7c on ABC and next day on Hulu.

"Stepping onto the stage in front of 50,000 people to host CMA Fest at Nissan Stadium in my hometown of Nashville was indescribable," says Jelly Roll. "The magnitude of the moment really hit me, to be across the street from the juvenile detention center I was in and to now be onstage hosting - how do you describe being in the same exact place while being in a place that couldn't be more different, at the same time."

"When my buddy Jelly Roll and I walked out into this massive crowd and felt the electric energy for the first time, it felt important," says McBryde. "We were nervous! But it also felt good, because at the root of it all, it's just me and my pal cutting up, only we're doing it on national television for CMA Fest."
