Post Malone will take the stage at the 59th Academy of Country Music Awards in Frisco, marking the latest high-profile appearance in his country era.
The Grapevine-raised star is among a number of new performers the Academy of Country Music announced Tuesday for the awards, set to take place May 16 at the Ford Center at the Star. Also on the list is fellow Texan Parker McCollum, who won male artist of the year in 2022, as well as a string of duet partners including Kelsea Ballerini and Noah Kahan, Nate Smith and Avril Lavigne, and Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani.
They join a previously announced roster of performers spanning from Texas-born Miranda Lambert to Jason Aldean, Kane Brown, Jelly Roll, Cody Johnson, Thomas Rhett, Chris Stapleton and Lainey Wilson.
Viewers can stream this year’s awards, hosted by Reba McEntire, live on Prime Video at 7 p.m. without a membership. A limited number of tickets to this year’s ACM Awards are also available for purchase on SeatGeek.
Backstage, radio and TV personality Bobby Bones will deliver interviews with artists and highlight special moments in the show, according to organizers.
More than 7.7 million viewers tuned in last year to watch Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks host the ceremony in its first incarnation at the Dallas Cowboys’ 12,000-seat practice facility. Founded in 1966, the awards visited AT&T Stadium in 2015.
More performers and details leading up to the awards are set to be announced in the coming weeks.
CORRECTION, 4:00 p.m., May 8, 2024: An earlier version of this story misstated the time the awards start. It is 7 p.m., not 6 p.m.
