The full schedule has been announced for the fourth annual ACM Party For A Cause, which will take place Friday, April 1 through Sunday, April 3 at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds. Carrie Underwood, Dierks Bentley, and Kenny Chesney are slated to headline the three-day festival, which will be hosted by Katie Cook (Friday), Shawn Parr & Storme Warren (Saturday), and Blair Garner (Sunday).
For the first time, the ACM Party for a Cause Festival will feature RFID Wristbands for festival entry and exit. After passes are purchased guests will be shipped RFID Wristbands, which can be activated online before arrival to the festival. The RFID Wristbands will also feature ACM Cashless, a program which uses RFID technology to allow attendees to link their credit card to their wristband, set a PIN for security, and then use it to purchase beverages, food and select merchandise at the event. ACM Cashless is the recommended payment method, but credit card and cash will also be accepted by vendors at the festival.
Through a partnership with Las Vegas Events, festival attendees can catch a ride to the festival on Festival Hotel Shuttles, which will pick-up at the MGM Grand, Downtown Las Vegas Events Center and Stratosphere. Wristband or proof of ticket purchase will be required to board the shuttles. As previously announced, fans can also ride the monorail, take an Uber or take a taxi to the Las Vegas Festival Grounds.
Ticket proceeds from the ACM Party for a Cause Festival benefit the Academy’s charitable arm, ACM Lifting Lives, which supports military programs that use music therapy to aid our veterans and wounded warriors, while providing funding to help them ease back into civilian life, among other charities. Over $400,000 has been donated to various military organizations in just three years.
