CMA's Fan Fair lineup includes Brooks & Dunn, Vince Gill, Jo Dee Messina

This year's CMA Music Festival and Fan Fair is set for June 10-13 in Nashville, and will feature performances by Brooks & Dunn , Vince Gill , Jo Dee Messina , Trace Adkins, Clint Black , LeAnn Rimes and Lonestar, according to organizers.

Other acts on the bill include Dierks Bentley, Glen Campbell, Terri Clark, Billy Ray Cyrus, Charlie Daniels, Diamond Rio, Pat Green, Buddy Jewell, Montgomery Gentry, Keith Urban, Colay Walker, Darryl Worley and Wynonna.

In all, hundreds of artists are expected to participate in the event, which will feature 40 hours of concerts at various venues throughout downtown Nashville. The Country Music Association presents Fan Fair annually.

The largest events will take place at The Coliseum, the stadium that is home to the NFL's Tennessee Titans, and local clubs will host late-night concerts.

In addition to the nightly concerts, live music will emanate all day from the event's Greased Lightning Riverfront Park Stages, two stages located along the banks of the Cumberland River. Autograph signings by various artists are scheduled to take place at the Nashville Convention Center.

Fans will also get a chance to ask questions of some artists during the event's CMA Celebrity Close Up series, for which a separate ticket is required.

Organizers have added a new Sports Zone at The Coliseum for 2004. The attraction "offers the opportunity for fans to participate in sports activities plus see some of their favorite artists and professional athletes go head-to-head in friendly competitions," according to a press release.

Four-day CMA Music Festival ticket packages, divided into four categories based on the level of reserved seating at The Coliseum, are now on the market. According to organizers, Fan Fair's new Gold Circle ticket package is already sold out.
