Country music fans saddle up- CMA Fest is just two weeks away and the star-studded lineup is growing!
The world’s largest and longest-running country music festival just dropped its lineup for “Spotify House,” which will take over Blake Shelton’s Ole Red Bar and Honky Tonk.
Each year, Spotify House gives fans a chance to escape the Nashville heat and still catch some of the top names in country music. And this year is no exception.
The June 5-7 lineup for 2025 includes ACM Entertainer of the year Lainey Wilson, Kelsea Ballerini, Keith Urban, Shaboozey, Bailey Zimmerman, Riley Green, Jordan Davis, Parker McCollum, Brothers Osborne, Zac Brown Band, Noah Cyrus, Little Big Town, Rascal Flatts and a long list of others.
Spotify House Focuses on ‘Hot Country’
Of course, the CMA Fest has many other venues where country music fans can get their fill of the hottest acts.
But Spotify House specifically focuses on “Hot Country.”
Spotify spokesperson Jackie Augustus said in a statement, “We’re thrilled to return to Nashville and bring back the beloved Spotify House at Ole Red, as we celebrate a decade of Hot Country—our flagship country music playlist. Over the past 10 years, Hot Country has become a cornerstone in championing the genre, and we’re proud to continue that tradition by bringing fans, emerging artists, and country superstars together under one roof.”
Augustus continues, “With a 300-person venue in the heart of the CMA Fest footprint, Spotify House has become a go-to destination, and we can’t wait to share what’s in store for fans who have been a part of this journey.”
The three-day event at Ole Red will have acts on stage from 10:00a.m. to 2:00a.m. each day.
Spotify Offering Playlist Ahead of Event
To get fans hyped up before Spotify House opens, the digital streaming service has created a 100-song playlist featuring artists from the lineup.
And this year, for the first time ever, top fans of Spotify’s Hot Country playlist will be invited to get early access to the house on a first-come, first-served basis.
CMA Fest is the Ultimate Country Music Festival
The CMA Fest has been going strong for more than five decades now. In fact, last year, the festival celebrated its 50th anniversary with record crowds.
The Country Music Association says 90,000 people attended each day of the 4-day festival last June. CMA says there were fans from all 50 states and 51 countries. And they turned out to see more than 300 acts perform. The Fest also saw its largest stadium crowd in history.
This year, Nashville’s Nissan Stadium- where the biggest acts play- has a lineup including Kelsea Ballerini, Luke Bryan, Brooks & Dunn, Blake Shelton, Ella Langley, Ashley McBryde, Keith Urban, Darius Rucker, Shaboozey, Rascal Flatts, Carly Pearce, Jason Aldean and Dierks Bentley, among others.
