Posted on August 23, 2016

The 10th annual ACM Honors is pulling out all of the stops for their big anniversary.

In addition to performances by Jason Aldean, Kelsea Ballerini, Luke Bryan, Cam, Maren Morris and Cole Swindell, there is more big news. Blake Shelton, Dierks Bentley, Keith Urban and Toby Keith will take the stage for a special tribute to Glen Campbell, who will be honored with the ACM Career Achievement Award.

The star-studded foursome will perform an all-star medley of Glen’s greatest hits, culminating with an ensemble performance of “Rhinestone Cowboy.” Kim Campbell, Glen’s wife of 35 years, will accept the award on behalf of her husband, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 2011.

The 10th ACM Honors is an evening dedicated to celebrating the special honorees and off-camera category winners from the 51st Academy of Country Music Awards. Hosted by Lady Antebellum, the two-hour special will tape on Tuesday, Aug. 30, at Nashville’s historic Ryman Auditorium, and make its television debut on the CBS Television Network on Friday, Sept. 9, 9–11 p.m. ET.
