By Alli Rosenbloom, CNN

(CNN) — The 2024 Academy of Country Music (ACM) Awards took place on Thursday with country music superstar and actress Reba McEntire as the ceremony’s host.

Lainey Wilson – who won this year’s entertainer of the year award – and Chris Stapleton were the big winners of the evening, each taking home three ACM Awards each.

Luke Combs took home the trophy for single of the year for his cover of Tracy Chapman’s hit song “Fast Car” after leading the nominees with eight nods.

Jelly Roll made an impassioned speech after he and Wilson won the music event of the year award for “Save Me.” With tears in his eyes, Jelly Roll said, “I never thought I’d be standing here.”

Pop singer Dua Lipa made a surprise appearance to perform a duet with Stapleton of his song “Think I’m in Love With You.” After the performance, Lipa told backstage host Bobby Bones that she and Stapleton have “been talking about this for a little while” and that she’s “such a fan” of the country star.

Wilson, Stapleton, Kelsea Ballerini, Post Malone, Noah Kahan and Gwen Stefani, among others, also performed.

Known as “Country Music’s Party of the Year,” the event took place live from Ford Center in Frisco, Texas and streamed live on Prime Video. See below for a full list of nominees with the winners indicated in bold.
