Country music is taking over Las Vegas in April, as the ACM’s head to Sin City. While the coveted awards show will take place on April 7th, it’s the days leading up to the awards that will truly be “must-see” events!

Fremont Street is located in the heart of Las Vegas, and is only second in popularity to the infamous Las Vegas Strip. The Fremont Experience is a pedestrian mall downtown, which takes up a five-block radius and is well-known for being home to the world’s largest video screen (a whopping 1,500 feet long!). So, who can you expect to see at the Fremont Street Experience, performing on this monster screen? An incredible line-up consisting of co-headliners Gary Allan and Jake Owen, along with Randy Houser, Chris Janson, Jana Kramer, Kip Moore, Joe Nichols and Sunny Sweeney!

The Pistol Annies played their first-ever solo show Saturday night at the Las Vegas House of Blues.  The trio (Angaleena Presley, Ashley Monroe and Miranda Lambert) admitted to being nervous.  It could’ve been because it was their first headlining concert.  Or it could’ve been because they chose to strip things down and make it an acoustic show.  It turns out the only thing they needed to worry about was having enough room for all of their fired-up fans.

Judging from the response in the media and online, the event did not disappoint and fans everywhere are hoping that iHeartRadio turns the festival into an annual celebration of music.
