The 58th annual Country Music Association Awards kicked off in Nashville on Wednesday evening, honoring this year’s top country music performances, songs and stars.

During a night of musical entertainment and memorable moments, newly crowned vocalists of the year Lainey Wilson and Chris Stapleton won big at the ceremony, which broadcasted from Music City’s Bridgestone Arena on ABC. Another highlight was a star-studded tribute to George Strait‘s discography, with the 72-year-old “King of Country Music” himself performing and accepting the Willie Nelson Lifetime Achievement Award.

Nominees dueled it out for the evening’s accolades, which included the new artist of the year, single of the year, album of the year and the coveted entertainer of the year title — the night’s biggest award, which went to Morgan Wallen. The evening’s top nominees were Wilson, Stapleton, Wallen, Cody Johnson and Post Malone.
