When CMA Fest springs to life in Nashville each year, Spotify House is always one of the top destinations-and 2025 was no different. For the sixth year, Spotify House returned with three days of nonstop country music.
Taking place at the iconic Ole Red-the Blake Shelton-inspired bar, restaurant, and live music venue that's renowned for its handpicked country music talent-Spotify House gave fans a place to connect with artists they love, discover new favorites, and dive deeper into the music that moves them.

We also celebrated a decade of Hot Country with a fresh new look and plenty of surprises, including exclusive early access to Spotify House for top listeners of our flagship country playlist.
Hot Country on Spotify, in real life With a star-studded lineup of artists ranging from stadium headliners to the next big acts, we brought the full range of country music to life, just like your favorite Hot Country playlist.
Day 1 Day 1 of Spotify House kicked off with Keith Urban taking fans through a memorable set of classics, setting the stage for a night of firsts. While Bailey Zimmerman used his moment onstage to announce his second studio album Different Night Same Rodeo-and perform his single Comin' In Cold for the very first time-Noah Cyrus debuted her upcoming collaboration with Blake Shelton, New Country.
There were also surprises galore, with Eric Church popping up with a late-night set on the Spotify House mainstage, and Marshmello closing out the night with a special DJ set featuring Dasha, Kane Brown, Hudson Westbrook and Ashley Cooke.

Day 3 On Day 3, Spotify House pulled out all the stops as it closed out another successful CMA Fest. Shaboozey returned to Spotify House to perform hits like Good News and Drink Don't Need No Mix, before being surprised onstage with a Spotify Billions Club plaque for his song A Bar Song (Tipsy).
On a night that included a set of classic hits from country royalty Rascal Flatts, Blake Shelton also took to the stage of his Ole Red bar to surprise fans with a set that included performances of two unreleased songs. R&B legend Ne-Yo also joined Ashley Cooke for an unannounced performance of his smash hit So Sick -a song which Ashley has been know to cover while on tour. Bringing the festivities to a close, Jordan Davis brought Carly Pearce and Marcus King on stage for cameo appearances for her set, which had the crowd singing along to hits like Next Thing You Know and I Ain't Saying.
In addition, we partnered with Meta throughout the event to bring an exclusive Reels experience to Spotify House. Director Tommy Brockert was on the ground capturing Reels that were shared on featured artists' Instagram and Facebook accounts.
