Who’s performing at 2025’s ‘CMA Country Christmas’?

Hosted by Christian singer Lauren Daigle, known for tracks like “You Say,” “Thank God I Do” and “Rescue,” alongside country star Jordan Davis, famous for hits like “Next Thing You Know” and “Buy Dirt,” these two will also give performances at the event. Joining them on stage as a performer is also singer Riley Green, who actually just took home three trophies at this year’s CMA Awards: one for Song of the Year, one for Single of the Year and one for Music Video of the Year, thanks to his hit duet with Ella Langley, “You Look Like You Love Me.” Groups like Lady A and Little Big Town, both of which were nominated for CMA Awards this year, will also perform. This crew of country stars will additionally be joined by Parker McCollum, Megan Moroney, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Susan Tedeschi, Derek Trucks and BeBe Winans.
