Here’s how to get $5 tickets for the 2024 CMA Music Festival

Hot chicken won’t be the main attraction in Nashville this week.

From June 6-9, the annual CMA Music Festival returns to Nissan Stadium and the Ascend Amphitheater for four days of boot-scootin’, honky-tonkin’ good times.

Household name headliners at this year’s extravaganza include Jelly Roll, Thomas Rhett, Lainey Wilson, Cody Johnson and Luke Bryan.

They’ll be joined by fellow country superstars Hardy, Kelsea Ballerini, Jon Pardi, Keith Urban and Parker McCollum.

Plus, country-fried classic rock icons Lynyrd Skynyrd will be there, too.

Best of all though, last-minute general admission passes are crazy cheap.

At the time of publication, we found single-day general admission passes going for as low as $5 before fees on Vivid Seats.

Yes, you read that right. You can see Brett Young, NEEDTOBREATHE, Restless Road and more for less than a beer (!) at the fest.

Four-day general admission passes start at $111 before fees.

Curious how much tickets will run you for the fest date of your choosing?
