Eric Church, Brad Paisley and Hank Williams Jr. will perform outdoors in downtown Nashville during the CMT Music Awards on Wednesday (June 6), giving fans without show tickets a chance to be a part of the live event. The outdoor performances, a part of the event for the first time in the show's 11-year-history, were announced Tuesday at a press conference with hosts Toby Keith and actress Kristen Bell. The live segments will take place on the Bridgestone Arena plaza. Fans are encouraged to arrive no later than 7 p.m. to participate in the event.
