2025 ACM Awards

Written by Craig Rector | April 04, 2025

We’re beyond thrilled to celebrate our incredible MAX artist partners who’ve secured nominations for the 2025 Academy of Country Music Awards—our biggest year yet! In total, 17 of our talented partners are up for a whopping 45 nominations. 🎉

One reason the ACM Awards are extra special for MAX is that they’re literally happening in our backyard—just a stone’s throw from MAX HQ—from Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas. You can feel the hometown buzz in the air, and we’ll be there in person to soak it all up, from the red-carpet arrivals to the final encore.

So, mark your calendars for Thursday, May 8 at 7 p.m. CDT—expect an exciting night of performances and well-deserved honors for these incredible artists.

If you’d like more details about our nominated partners or want to talk about how we can help match your brand with the perfect artist, don’t be shy—send us a note. We’re ready to make some noise…and maybe next year it'll be an artist we partner with you at ACM Awards! 🎶🏆
