This year’s CMA Fest primetime concert special, officially titled CMA Fest Presented By SoFi, gives fans front-row access to the performances, collaborations and standout moments from the weekend-long 2026 CMA Fest in Nashville. The three-hour TV event airs on June 25, at 8 p.m. PT/ET, and since the special is broadcast on ABC, it can also be livestreamed on any streaming service that carries said network, namely DirecTV (with a five-day free trial), Fubo (with a five-day free trial), Sling and Hulu + Live TV.
Country Music star Riley Green and Good Morning America host Lara Spencer will co-host the music-filled event, which showcases performances from Blake Shelton, Ella Langley, Tim McGraw, Lainey Wilson and Luke Bryan, to name a handful (see below for full list of performers).
