Stagecoach may have come and gone, but this year’s country music celebrations are just getting started.
Billboard announced Tuesday (April 28) that it will be returning to Nashville this summer for Billboard Country Live, two days of celebrating country music’s biggest stars. The tentpole two-day event will take place June 4 and 5 at the legendary rooftop entertainment venue Category 10.
The festivities will begin Wednesday, June 3, with the exclusive Billboard Country Power Players event, recognizing the genre’s most influential figures. The celebration will continue the following day with 2025 CMA Awards vocal group of the year The Red Clay Strays taking to the stage to headline a showcase concert. Billboard Country Live will close out Friday, June 5, with a headlining performance from hitmaking newcomer Tucker Wetmore, who has already landed four Hot 100 hits since his 2024 debut EP. Both days will also feature a slate of big names and surprise guests, with more to be announced in the coming weeks.
Alongside Billboard Country Live, Billboard‘s annual events slate includes the Billboard Music Awards, the only awards ceremony that recognizes musicians for their achievements on the Billboard charts; Billboard Women in Music, taking place on Wednesday this week at the Hollywood Palladium; Billboard Latin Music Week; and Billboard Live.
All Billboard Country Live shows will be free and open to the public with RSVP at live.billboard.com/country.
