A celebration of the life and legacy of Naomi Judd, Naomi Judd: A River Of Time Celebration, will be held May 15 at the Ryman Auditorium to honor the extraordinary life and legacy of the country music icon.

CMT will exclusively televise the public memorial service as a commercial-free special at 5 p.m. CT. Additional details on the service, performers and special appearances will be announced in the coming days.

“We are sincerely privileged to work alongside Wynonna and Ashley to present this live celebration of life for their mother Naomi. While we all continue to deeply mourn the loss of such a legendary artist, we are honored to commemorate her legacy alongside the country community, her friends, family and legions of fans across the world at the perfect venue: The Mother Church of Country Music. This special will celebrate her timeless voice, unforgettable spirit and the immense impact she left on our genre through the best form of healing we have–music,” CMT producers share.

Naomi Judd: a River of Time Celebration is a co-production from CMT and Sandbox Live in partnership with The Judds’ family. Margaret Comeaux (CMT), Leslie Fram (CMT), Jason Owen (Sandbox Live) and Patrizia DiMaria (Ladypants Productions) are Executive Producers.
