The value of Billy Currington tickets just went up one more notch. He was recently added to the lineup for this year’s ACM Music Festival taking place June 10-13 in Nashville, Tenn., at LP Field.
Currington will be in lofty company, appearing alongside country legends like Tim McGraw, Alan Jackson and Reba McEntire, as well as other fresh country faces such as the Zac Brown Band, Jason Aldean, Kellie Pickler and Lady Antebellum.
The annual country music event invites many of the biggest names in the business to donate their time and entertain the fans. In exchange, event organizers donate half of the net proceeds to benefit music education in Metro Nashville Public Schools.

Billy Currington has been nominated for an Academy of Country Music Award for Single Record of the Year and Song of the Year.
For Single Record of the Year, he’ll be competing against Lady Antebellum, David Nail, the Zac Brown Band and Miranda Lambert. For Song of the Year, he’s going against Carrie Underwood, Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert and Taylor Swift.
Though Currington is only nominated for two categories, he stands to receive three awards. That’s because some categories—like Single of the Year—have awards for the artist and the producer. In Currington’s case, he is both.
Let’s hope that Currington fares better at the ACMs than he did at the Grammys. He was nominated for Best Male Country Vocal Performance and Best Country Song, but lost to Keith Urban and Taylor Swift, respectively.
The 45th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards will be held at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena at 8 p.m. ET on April 18. The ceremony will also be broadcast live by CBS.
Check back soon for more information on Billy Currington tickets and ACM presenters and performers.
