Published 3 days ago7 minute read

Two months after the bulk of the 2025 Academy of Country Music Awards were presented the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas, the ACM announced the winners of the ACM Industry Awards and Studio Recording Awards via social media on Tuesday (July 8).

All ACM Industry Awards and Studio Recording Awards winners will be celebrated at the 18th Academy of Country Music Honors on Wednesday, Aug. 20, at The Pinnacle, located at Nashville Yards. The event will also recognize previously announced artist-songwriter of the year winner Lainey Wilson and songwriter of the year winner Jessie Jo Dillon, as well as this year’s Special Award recipients, which will be announced on Wednesday, July 9. Performers will be revealed in the coming weeks. 

“We are thrilled to bring the Country Music industry’s favorite night, ACM Honors, to The Pinnacle, Nashville’s newest live music venue, next month,” Damon Whiteside, CEO of the Academy of Country Music, said in a statement. “This is an exciting time for the academy as we reimagine this special night through new partnerships and a new format that will elevate the show’s impact.”

Tickets for ACM Honors will be available to ACM A-List email newsletter subscribers and academy members through an exclusive pre-sale beginning Thursday, July 10, with general onsale beginning Friday, July 11, through AXS. Fans can subscribe now to the A-List to gain access to Thursday’s pre-sale.

Heading into Thursday night’s (May 8) 2025 ACM Awards, country rookie Ella Langley led the nominations pack with eight nods — and she picked up a whopping five prizes, for an impressive breakout night. Right behind her was Lainey Wilson, who nabbed four awards, including the coveted title of entertainer of the year.
