Canadian Country Music Association Awards Tickets

CCMA's were amazing, would definitely go again. It was an absolute awesome experience.

I had no idea what to expect as I'd never been before and I'm not an overall fan of Country Music, just of Johnny Reid. I was taking a niece who is a huge fan of Country. Well, I was converted! Hamilton did an exceptional job keeping all of the venues together within one block. Schedules ran mainly on time and there were plenty of volunteers everywhere you looked who were more than willing to help you out. The songwriters' cafe and Great Guitar Pull were wonderful, intimate venues with great songwriters. The free five hour FanFest on the rooftop of Jackson Square was wonderful. Where we stood we were able to take photos of all of the singers. The T.V. taping of the BIG EVENT was terrific fun, followed by the reception where you could speak to your favourite singers. Great food!

I had purchased "Advanced" tickets and was excited to see that I had received "Floor" seats. Upon arrival and getting to our seats I noticed that we were indeed on the floor but one of the last rows on the floor - I did not think that Row 11 would be so far back. There was a small stage just ahead of us which I thought maybe we will get a chance to see the performers come up to this stage. Again I was disappointed. This stage was for the "Presenters and Winners" and all throughout the show they had to face the front stage and had their backs to us! We were unable to see any of the performers as the main stage, only to see them on the Jumbo Screen which was not available all of the time, Overall the performances were good but I was disappointed with the location of my advanced tickets. I could have purchased tickets for the same price off to the side of the main stage with a better view.
