CMA Fest 2025 is in the books, and Nashville mostly agreed weather-wise. Considering there can be tornados and hail and all else in middle Tennessee, just escaping with a little rain seems like a lucky four-day weekend.
Here’s everything you need to know:
1. Megan Moroney started things off with a bang at the Chevy Riverfront stage.
2. Brooks & Dunn killed it with Lainey Wilson on their song “Play Something Country”.
3. The Craig Campbell Celebrity Cornhole Challenge and Concert was a success and raised over $30,000. That’s SIX C’s if you were counting by the way.
4. Thursday night it was Jason Aldean, Brooks & Dunn, and Darius Rucker headlining…Friday it was Keith Urban, Kelsea Ballerini, and Shaboozey…Saturday had Blake Shelton, Megan Moroney, and Jordan Davis…and last night was Luke Bryan, Dierks Bentley, and Ashley McBryde.
5. Kelsea Ballerini surprised the crowd by bringing out Noah Kahan…and Shaboozey brought out Jelly Roll.
6. Everyone seemed to have fun, except for this guy and girl that were mad because influencers got all the good seats.
