It's finally here! The 2024 iHeartCountry Festival has returned and taken over the Moody Center in Austin, Texas, on Saturday (May 4), and many of your favorite artists and personalities kicked off the star-studded night by walking the red carper and showing off their incredible looks.

Before the start of the show, some pretty notable faces showed off their style while walking the red carpet, including country stars like Ashley McBryde, TJ and John Osborne, and Lady A's Charles Kelly, Hillary Scott and Dave Haywood, to name a few. Even a pair of adorable pups made an appearance.

The iHeartCountry Festival was once again hosted by Bobby Bones, who returned to lead the crowd through the night's stacked list of performers that included some of the biggest names in country music today. The night featured must-watch performances from Jason Aldean, Keith Urban, Jelly Roll, Lady A, Old Dominion, Riley Green, Ashley McBryde, Brothers Osborne and Walker Hayes.

Several of the artists taking the iHeartCountry Festival stage have also received nominations for the 59th Academy of Country Music Awards on May 16, led by Reba McEntire, who is returning for the 17th time as host, including Jelly Roll, who, as a first-time ACM Award nominee, is up for Entertainer of the Year alongside Kane Brown, Luke Combs, Cody Johnson, Chris Stapleton, Morgan Wallen and Lainey Wilson.
