If you’re planning on heading to Music City for the 2016 CMA Music Festival, you’re definitely going to want to mark your calendar for Tuesday, June 7 when the 6th annual “Music City Gives Back” concert takes place.

The concert, benefiting the W.O. Smith Music School, will take place near 5th Avenue and Demonbreum Street in downtown Nashville and will feature performances from headliner Dustin Lynch, Rodney Atkins, Craig Campbell, Canaan Smith and LANco.

“This is hands-down one of my favorite events to do every year,” said Atkins. “We started it as a way to help our friends and neighbors in the community who were affected by the huge flood in 2010, and it just keeps growing every year and has become a fun way for us to support some of the great organizations we have in Nashville like the W.O. Smith Music School. I’m grateful to all the artists who are coming out to play with us this year – we’re going to have a good time!”

The concert is free to the public and performances kick off at 6 p.m. Select artists will also be available to sign autographs in the sponsor activation area from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. “America’s Morning Show” hosts Blair Garner, Kelly Ford and Chuck Wicks will be on hand as the event’s hosts.
