The CMT Music Awards have been celebrating country music's top artists for over two decades, and they're one of the few major awards shows where the fans get to vote for every single winner. From Video of the Year to Performance of the Year, it's the viewers who decide — making this one of the most democratic and fan-friendly awards shows in all of music.
The show moved from Nashville to the Moody Center in Austin, Texas in 2023, bringing a fresh energy to the broadcast. While the 2025 ceremony was paused during the Paramount/Skydance media transition, fans are eagerly anticipating the return of the CMT Awards. The 2027 details — date, location, host, and nominees — haven't been announced yet.

The CMT Music Awards is country music's premier fan-voted awards show, where viewers determine every winner across all categories. Produced by Paramount and broadcast on CBS and CMT, the show has been a staple of country music culture since 2002, honoring the genre's top music videos, performances, and collaborations.
After more than twenty years in Nashville, the CMT Music Awards relocated to the Moody Center in Austin, Texas in 2023, bringing the show to a state-of-the-art 15,000-seat arena and tapping into Austin's legendary live music scene. The 2024 edition aired on CBS on April 7, featuring performances and awards from country's biggest names. The 2025 ceremony was paused during Paramount's merger with Skydance Media, but fans are looking ahead to a return.
What sets the CMT Music Awards apart from other country awards shows (like the ACMs and CMAs) is the fan-voting model. Every category is decided entirely by fan votes, giving the audience a direct say in who takes home the trophies. The show also features live performances from nominees and presenters, making it both an awards ceremony and a concert rolled into one.
Past CMT Awards highlights include unforgettable performances, surprise collaborations, and emotional acceptance speeches. The show has honored icons like Carrie Underwood, Keith Urban, Luke Bryan, and Kane Brown alongside breakout stars who went on to dominate the genre. For country music fans, it's appointment viewing every year.
