Hosted by Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley, the three and a half hour show was filled with comedy, awards, and performances.

Garth Brooks snagged the most coveted award of the evening, Entertainer of the Year, while Brothers Osborne dethroned reigning champs Florida Georgia Line for Vocal Duo of the Year. Carrie Underwood earned a well-deserved Female Vocalist of the Year, and Maren Morris made her CMA Awards debut with none other than a win in New Artist of the Year.
