CMA Touring Awards 2023
The Country Music Association’s Touring Awards celebrate and honor the professionals dedicated to the success of Country Music touring. The awards were established in 1990, took a hiatus, and then returned in 2012. This year, new categories have been introduced including crew, backline technician, stage manager, support services company, and unsung hero of the year. The nomination process took place in October where CMA members had the opportunity to nominate individuals or companies.
A task force reviewed the top nominees and selected the finalists. The awards ceremony is scheduled to take place in Nashville in early 2024. The nominees include Business Manager of the Year, Coach/Truck Driver of the Year, and FOH Engineer of the Year. Voting for the winners commenced on December 13, 2023. The CMA Touring Awards hold significant importance in recognizing talent and hard work in the Country Music touring industry.
