The Academy of Country Music Awards will return to Amazon Prime Video for the next two years, with the 59th ACM Awards streaming live in May 2024 from the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, TX – headquarters of the Dallas Cowboys. The two-year renewal also includes the 60th ACM Awards, though date and location have not been announced.

Concurrently, Prime Video has revealed that viewership for the 58th ACM Awards in May of this year exceeded 7.7 million viewers. Additional viewership numbers for streaming via Amazon Live and Twitch were not revealed. Amazon has not shared viewership for 2022's 57th ACM Awards, while the show's final year on CBS – 2021's 56th ACM Awards – drew 6.1m viewers. 

"When Prime Video first streamed the ACM Awards in 2022, we were overwhelmed with the response from our global audience," says Amazon MGM Studios Head Vernon Sanders. "After seeing last year’s show grow to more than 7.7 million viewers, we could not be more thrilled to continue our relationship with the Academy of Country Music and Dick Clark Productions for the next two years, and especially through the show’s milestone 60th anniversary in 2025."

Adds Academy CEO Damon Whiteside, "Thanks to the biggest host pairing of all time, Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks, the comprehensive, cross-platform program with our partners at Prime Video and Amazon Music, and the dedicated fans in Texas and around the world, the May 2023 show was a groundbreaking success and illustrates that our pioneering and innovative move to streaming was absolutely the right one at the right time! We’re eager to see everyone back in Texas once again at the home of the Dallas Cowboys next May for another groundbreaking ACM Awards show!"
