The 2025 Academy of Country Music Awards celebrate their 60th anniversary Thursday night. And by the looks of it, they're not planning on slowing down any time soon. There's a lot to celebrate. Sixteen-time ACM Award winner Reba McEntire will once again host.

Additional pre-show winners include The Red Clay Strays, a fiery country-rock band from Alabama that scored a win for New Duo/Group of the Year, and Zach Top, a neotraditional troubadour who took home New Male Artist of the Year.
