CBS, the Academy of Country Music and dick clark productions announced Thursday (July 9) that the 56th annual Academy of Country Music Awards will broadcast live on Sunday, April 18, 2021 (live 8-11 p.m. ET/delayed PT) on the CBS Television Network, and will stream live and on demand on CBS All Access.

In 2020, the 55th ACM Awards were postponed due to COVID-19 and will take place for the first time in Nashville, broadcasting from three locations including the Grand Ole Opry House, Ryman Auditorium, and Bluebird Cafe. Hosted by current ACM Entertainer of the Year Keith Urban, the 55th ACM Awards are set for Sept. 16, to air on CBS Television Network and available to stream on demand on CBS All Access.

Additional details about the 56th Academy of Country Music Awards, including the 2021 ACM Awards host and performers, location, ticket on-sale dates, hotel information, and more, will be announced in the coming months.
