The 2025 CCMA Awards presented by TD will be hosted by comedian, actor, and cultural icon Tom Green. The event will be televised live for the first time from Prospera Place in Kelowna, British Columbia, on Saturday, September 13 at 8 p.m. ET, exclusively on CTV, CTV.ca, and the CTV app. This announcement is made with great pleasure by the Canadian Country Music Association® (CCMA®). Additionally, the show will be streamed on Crave the next day.
Green, who is renowned for pushing boundaries and challenging entertainment business conventions, is expected to contribute his own energy, humor, and cheeky appeal to the biggest night in Canadian country music.
His fifth studio album, Home to the Country, which was his first full-length attempt at the genre, was released earlier this year. Tom Green: Country, a Prime Video TV series that chronicles his life on a secluded farm in Ontario, was shown alongside it.
In a statement, Green stated, “Country music has always been a big part of my life growing up in Canada.” “I can’t wait to be part of this celebration and to bring a few surprises to the stage in Kelowna.”
“We’re beyond excited to welcome Tom Green to host this year’s CCMA Awards,” said Amy Jeninga, President of the CCMA. “His bold creativity and deep Canadian roots make him the perfect choice to lead a show that celebrates connection, community, and world-class entertainment.”
The culturally aware city is transformed into a destination for country fans, performers, and industry professionals as the 2025 CCMA Awards conclude Country Music Week, which takes place from September 10 to September 13.
From Wednesday, September 10 to Saturday, September 13, this year’s performance will serve as the spectacular finale to Country Music Week 2025, turning Kelowna into the premier destination for music fans, musicians, and industry professionals.
“I’m honoured to be hosting the CCMA Awards,” said Green. “Country music has always been a big part of my life growing up in Canada. I can’t wait to be part of this celebration and to bring a few surprises to the stage in Kelowna.”
With an all-star lineup of presenters and performers, including a dynamic mix of the nation’s biggest artists (the complete list will be released soon), the 2025 CCMA Awards presented by TD are sure to be an amazing evening of celebration and song.
