Dolly Parton has been revealed as host for the 57th Academy of Country Music Awards taking place Monday, March 7 at 8PM ET from Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
"I am so excited to be hosting the ACM Awards… Watch for us because we're going to have some fun,” said Parton.
Parton won’t have to brave the duties alone as she will have co-hosts, set to be revealed at a later date.
“Dolly is the most iconic and multitalented artist of all time, and we are proud that she is a friend and supporter of the Academy, a previous host, and a 13-time Academy of Country Music Award recipient,” said Damon Whiteside, CEO of the Academy of Country Music.
“There is no one better than Dolly to represent the ACM Awards brand and country music on a global scale.”
Just days before she graces the ACM Awards stage, Parton will release her new album, Run, Rose, Run on March 4. The project accompanies her soon-to be-released novel, Run, Rose, Run which she authored alongside James Patterson. The novel will release March 7.
Catch the 57th Academy of Country Music Awards live on Prime Video Monday, March 7 at 8PM ET/7PM CT/5PM PT from Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
