The Country Music Association and ABC announced that Swift will perform at the 60th Annual CMA Awards on Wednesday, November 18, at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. The performance will mark her first appearance at the awards show in a decade and her first performance since 2013.

Swift, a two-time CMA Entertainer of the Year winner, is nominated for Single of the Year for “I Knew It, I Knew You,” bringing her career total to 26 CMA nominations.

Swift first attended the CMA Awards in 2006 and won her first award in 2007, taking home the Horizon Award. In 2009, she became the youngest artist to win Entertainer of the Year, a record she still holds.

Her last CMA Awards performance was in 2013, when she performed “Red” alongside Vince Gill and Alison Krauss. That same year, she received the prestigious Pinnacle Award, presented by Tim McGraw, Faith Hill, George Strait, Brad Paisley, Keith Urban and Rascal Flatts.

Lainey Wilson will host this year’s CMA Awards for the third consecutive year. The show will air live on ABC and Disney+ starting at 7 p.m. CT and will stream the following day on Hulu.

A limited number of tickets are still available at CMAawards.com/tickets.
