The 2017 CMT Music Awards are just about to begin with your favorite artists coming together at the Music City Center.

While there is plenty of excitement surrounding all of the nominations, event organizers promise several one-of-a-kind collaborations. After all, it's not every show you see The Chainsmokers performing with Florida Georgia Line and Lady Antebellum singing with Earth, Wind & Fire.
