ACM Awards to Stream Exclusively on Prime Video and Amazon Music
No Network Television Coverage in 2023
Highlights Include Parton and Brooks as Hosts
The Academy of Country Music (ACM) Awards will be available exclusively on streaming services in 2023, marking a significant departure from its traditional network television broadcast.
The ceremony, set for May 11 at 8:00 pm ET, will be streamed live on Prime Video and the Amazon Music channel on Twitch. This change follows the ACM Awards' shift to a streaming-only format in 2022.
The 2023 ACM Awards will feature Dolly Parton and Jimmie Allen as hosts. Parton will be hosting the ceremony for the second consecutive year and third time overall, while Brooks will be hosting for the first time.
The Red Carpet Show, hosted by Amber Anderson, Priscilla Block, BRELAND, Elaina Smith, and Kelly Sutton, will also be available to stream on Prime Video and the Amazon Music channel on Twitch.
Conclusion: Streaming Exclusivity Marks a New Era
The ACM Awards' decision to stream exclusively on Prime Video and Amazon Music signals a major shift in the way live events are consumed. It aligns with the growing trend of consumers transitioning to streaming platforms for entertainment. The absence of network television coverage may limit the reach of the awards, but it also presents an opportunity for the ACM to tap into a wider audience through streaming.
