CMA Awards 2020: Complete winners list

The biggest names in country music were honored at the 54th annual Country Music Association Awards tonight, with Eric Church taking home the highly coveted entertainer of the year award.

“This award, this year, at least for me, has been about the loss of this year — loss of life, loss of playing shows, loss of freedom, loss of kids being in school," Church said during his acceptance speech. "And you know what the win is? The win is we all were here tonight together, as country music, in-person, live, not on Zoom. And I think ... It's going to be music that brings us out of this. That is the one thing that is going to save the entire world.”
