Reba McEntire has been chosen to host the 60th Academy of Country Music Awards, which is set to take place at the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas, on May 8, 2025. This will mark back-to-back ACM hosting gigs for McEntire after the country legend hosted last year’s event, and will be McEntire’s 18th overall time hosting the ACM Awards ceremony. “Reba McEntire has hosted more ACM Awards shows than any other artist in history, and after her triumphant return this year for the 59th show, there is clearly no one better suited to helm this milestone show,” said Academy of Country Music CEO Damon Whiteside. “Our landmark 50th anniversary show in 2015 marked our debut in Texas, and we’re thrilled to return again to celebrate another major moment in ACM history.”
“I’m thrilled to be coming back to host the 60th ACM Awards on Prime Video,” McEntire said. “It’s going to be an absolute can’t-miss show and I can’t wait to see everybody back in Texas.” (Variety)
