Listen up people, the temperature around here is about to soar ‘cause the hottest country music event of the year is back on! We are talking, of course, about the iconic 2022 CCMA Awards presented by TD, and its spectacular prelude, Country Music Week 2022.
This year, the CCMA Awards are celebrating their 40th anniversary, meaning, they are going to be extra fab. And so will be the 4-days of musical events leading up to the much-awaited awards!
Starting September 8, the city will turn into a musical hub with the biggest and brightest stars of country music from across Canada. This musical extravaganza concludes with the glam CCMA awards evening on September 11. And tickets are now on sale for all the events.
A total of nine events will be hosted over these four days of music and celebration. Included are live performances, unplugged sessions with songwriters, celeb meet and greets, and a lot more. So, if you’ve been fan-ing over a country music celeb, now is your chance to be up close and personal with them.
The artist line-up includes names like Brett Kissel & 98°, Dax, Jade Eagleson, Lindsay Ell, Tyler Joe Miller, Mackenzie Porter, Tenille Townes, High Valley and Dallas Smith & Bailey Zimmerman. You can even catch some of these performances and events for free. Yes, you read that right.
