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.
