The winners in the 2024 CMA Awards have begun to be announced, and they include many of the biggest names in contemporary country music.

The 2024 CMA Awards took place on Wednesday night (Nov. 20) in Nashville, and aired live on ABC, with Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning hosting alongside Lainey Wilson.

Morgan Wallen led the CMA Awards nominees going into the ceremony, with seven nominations.

Wallen is also nominated for Entertainer of the Year, alongside Luke Combs, Jelly Roll, Chris Stapleton and Lainey Wilson. All of those artists earned multiple nominations in 2024; Jelly Roll and Combs scored three each, while Wilson earned four and Stapleton racked up five.

Ella Langley and Riley Green were early winners; their win in the category of Musical Event of the Year was announced just prior to the broadcast on Wednesday night.

Chris Stapleton took home the first major on-camera award, winning Single of the Year for “White Horse.”
