The Academy of Country Music (ACM) has announced that the 59th ACM Awards will take place on Thursday, May 16. The annual event will stream live from Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas, exclusively on Prime Video. The 2023 show, hosted by Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks, streamed live globally on Prime Video and the Amazon Music channel on Twitch.
ACM CEO Damon Whiteside shared: “Frisco, Texas and The Star District proved to be the perfect new home for the evolution of this Emmy-nominated ‘party,’ bringing music’s biggest global superstars to the passionate and loyal Texas country music fans! We’re thrilled to bring ACM Awards week to life again at the home of America’s Team, the Dallas Cowboys, along with our best-in-class partners at Amazon Prime Video, Amazon Music, Dick Clark Productions and our Executive Producer, Raj Kapoor, to make this year’s show even bigger and better. Fans will certainly want to be there in person to experience all the incredible moments we have in store, and we can’t wait to see everyone in Texas!”
Dallas Cowboys Owner, President & General Manager Jerry Jones said: “We all experienced first-hand last year what a perfect fit the Academy of Country Music Awards are with Ford Center at The Star, not only inside for the show, but out and around The Star District and Frisco as well. The stars of country music shine very brightly here in Texas, and we’re honored to be the home of this amazing celebration once again. We can’t wait to host all of the great artists and fans at ‘Country Music’s Party of the Year!’”
