The guest list was illustrious at Wednesday’s (Nov. 2) WME post-CMA party. More than 350 people attended, including Jason Aldean, Kid Rock, Big & Rich, Chris Young, Dustin Lynch, New Artist of the Year winner Maren Morris, Tae Dye from Maddie & Tae, Olivia Newton John, and Nashville Mayor Megan Barry.

The party moved to a new location this year was the rooftop of The Thompson Hotel. DJ Michelle Pesce spun a mix of dance and pop songs while guests enjoyed specialty Casamigos Tequila cocktails. Budweiser was on hand to create custom engraved beer koozies, and a cigar roller was on site. Monster Energy also sponsored the party.

After the CMA Awards show, guests gathered around a live feed of the World Series. Earlier in the evening, WME held a viewing party at Winners Bar, where more than 600 guests stopped by throughout the evening.

WME clients took home 7 out of 11 awards last night, including Garth Brooks for Entertainer of the Year, Chris Stapleton (Male Vocalist and Music Video), Brothers Osborne (Vocal Duo), Dierks Bentley (Musical Event), Eric Church (Album of the Year), and Thomas Rhett (Single of the Year).

Additional guests throughout the evening included Casey Donahew, Chase Bryant, Chris Kirkpatrick, Chris Lane, Cortland Finnegan, Easton Corbin, Gretchen Wilson, Josh Dallas, Kane Brown, Mike Mularkey, Ryan Hurd, Scotty McCreery, The Swon Brothers, Todd Chrisley, Tom Newberry, Tucker Beathard, Tyler Farr, and William Michael Morgan.
