2020 ACM Awards Winners

After a long wait we finally got to see the ACMs like we’ve never seen them before. The nominations list was announced on February 27 as the show was originally supposed to take place on April 5 in Las Vegas. The show had to be postponed due to the pandemic and they they were broadcast from three historic Nashville sites: the Ryman Auditorium, Bluebird Cafe and Grand Ole Opry House.
