Here Are the 2024 CMA Broadcast Awards Winners: Full List
Now, that’s how to get your day off to a good start, with a phone call from Brothers Osborne, the reigning CMA Award winners for vocal duo of the year, informing you that you are a 2024 CMA Broadcast Award winner. That’s just what happened on Wednesday (Oct. 9) for six teams of broadcast personalities and four radio stations.
Any full-time, on-air broadcast personalities and radio stations in the U.S. and Canada were eligible to submit entries. The entries were judged by a panel of broadcast professionals, representing all market sizes and regions.
The categories are established by market size based on population as ranked by Nielsen. Entries for broadcast personality of the year are judged on aircheck, ratings, community involvement and biographical and impact information. Candidates for radio station of the year are judged on aircheck, ratings, community involvement and leadership and impact information.
CMA Broadcast Awards winners are not eligible to enter the same award category in consecutive years; therefore, those who received trophies in 2023 were not eligible in 2024.
The 58th Annual CMA Awards — co-hosted by Luke Bryan, Peyton Manning and the reigning CMA entertainer of the year, Lainey Wilson — will air live from Bridgestone Arena in Nashville on Wednesday, Nov. 20, at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.
