The annual Academy of Country Music Awards are just around the corner, and the anticipation continues to build. We won't know which nominees ultimately pull out a win in their category until May 16, but there are plenty of details to obsess over in the meantime.

The Academy announced on April 25 that Reba McEntire will host the awards show again, making 2024 her 17th year hosting the awards show (but who could be mad about that?). On April 29, ACM dropped even more details about the upcoming show: the first round of performers.

As of April 29, confirmed performers for the ACM Awards include: Jason Aldean, Kane Brown, Jelly Roll, Cody Johnson, Miranda Lambert, Thomas Rhett, Chris Stapleton, Reba McEntire, and Lainey Wilson. In the two weeks leading up to May 16, additional performers will be announced.
