Kelsea Ballerini To Return As Host For CMT Music Awards

And she’s back.

CMT announced Tuesday that Kelsea Ballerini will return for the fourth consecutive year to host the CMT Music Awards, which will air live on Sunday, April 7, on CBS.

“I couldn’t be more excited to be back for my fourth year with my CMT family to host this year’s CMT Music Awards in Austin, Texas,” she said. “Hosting an awards show that celebrates the music that the fans love most has been an honor, and I know this year will be another unforgettable night.”

The 2024 CMT MUSIC AWARDS will air April 7 (8:00-11:00 PM, live ET/delayed PT) on the CBS Television Network and be available to stream live and on-demand on Paramount+ (live and on-demand for Paramount+ with SHOWTIME subscribers or on demand for Paramount+ Essential subscribers the day after the special airs)*.

More information including nominations, performers and presenters for the 2024 CMT MUSIC AWARDS will be announced in the coming weeks.
