CMA Fest 2022 takes place this week in Nashville from Thursday, June 9 until Sunday, June 12.

There are lots of free stages and events in downtown Nashville for fans to attend but CMA has implemented safety rules for the entire footprint of the festival.

ALLOWED BAGS: Bags that are clear plastic, vinyl or PVC and do not exceed 12” x 12” x 6” are allowed. All styles of clear bags are acceptable as long as they are 12″ x 12″ x 6″ or smaller – this includes clear backsacks, clear diaper bags, fanny packs, gallon Ziploc bags, etc. In addition to a clear bag, a small clutch bag or wallet 4.5” x 6.5” or smaller is allowed. One approved size clear bag and one approved size small clutch is allowed per person.  

This year, a free clear bag, provided by our friends at Vera Bradley , will be available to all attendees while supplies last! Just visit one of our two Info Booths, corner of Broadway and 1st Avenue or inside Music City Center, or go to Vera Bradley’s booth in Fan Fair X.
