“I’m thrilled to be partnering with the dynamic team at CMT once again to bring the Concert for Love & Acceptance to a broad audience as musicians, actors, comedians, and more demonstrate their support for LGBTQ youth and artists in the country music community and beyond,” noted Ty in a press release. “This event comes from my heart, and I hope it continues to resonate with people all around the world as we spread a message of acceptance for all people and work toward a world where only love remains.”
The Concert for Love and Acceptance began in 2015. It's produced by Ty's charitable organization, The Foundation for Love and Acceptance. Beneficiaries of the concert include GLAAD, MusiCares, and Nashville’s Oasis Center.
