Having been inexplicably shut out of the CMA Awards this month without explanation, it's telling that Beyoncé has garnered 17 nominations at the People's Choice Country Awards 2024, which is entirely fan-voted. The sense is that the starting pistol has gone off on an uncomfortable and long overdue conversation that's set to dominate awards season.
Beyoncé's potential haul is eclipsed only by that of Zach Bryan, who's been recognized in 19 categories, including Album of 2024. Morgan Wallen, who has received the most nominations at the CMAs, is up for eight People's Choice Country Awards. The trio, along with Jelly Roll, Kacey Musgraves, Kane Brown, Lainey Wilson and Luke Combs, are all in the frame for the headline People’s Artist of 2024 award.
Taking place at Grand Ole Opry in Nashville, read our guide below for how to watch People's Choice Country Awards 2024 online and from anywhere in the world.
