CMA Music Festival Sets Attendance Record

More than 80,000 fans descended upon Nashville last week, setting a new attendance record for the CMA Music Festival. The nearly 13 percent increase over the 71,000 fans in attendance in 2012 was attributed largely to expanding the event into the new Music City Centre, which nearly tripled the size of the former space in the Nashville Convention Centre. “This event has a global reputation as the destination for any Country Music fan,” Steve Moore, CMA Chief Executive Officer,” said. “The support we receive from our industry and the dedication of our fans is unduplicated. Each year we strive to improve and enhance the event for our attendees and the artists – and this is undeniably our best CMA Music Festival ever!”
