The 58th Academy of Country Music (ACM) Awards are just one day away, and this year's ceremony looks set to be the best one yet.
Despite a major last-minute change after Morgan Wallen was forced to cancel his performance due to health issues, the show still has an incredible line-up of performers which includes some of country music's biggest stars – and Ed Sheeran, who will make his ACM Awards debut.

Lainey Wilson has the most nods for a female artist with six nominations including Female Artist of the Year, Album of the Year, and Single of the Year. She is nominated in more categories than any other artist.
Most-awarded artist in ACM history, Miranda Lambert, received her record-breaking 17th Female Artist of the Year nomination (passing Reba McEntire with 16), as well as four other nominations. Her five nominations give her the opportunity to break more records following her Triple Crown Award presented at ACM Honors in the fall.
