Six-time GRAMMY-winning artist Amy Grant is embracing the spirit of the season with a packed schedule of performances, media appearances, and holiday traditions that celebrate the joy of Christmas. Coming off the heels of her fall tour and a special live event with Sheryl Crow, Grant now turns her focus to a dazzling array of holiday activities, making this season as magical as ever.

Grant will once again join Trisha Yearwood to co-host the highly anticipated “CMA Country Christmas,” airing Tuesday, Dec. 3, at 8/7c on ABC and streaming the next day on Hulu and Disney+. Filmed in Nashville before a live audience, the special highlights enchanting musical performances from Country Music’s biggest stars. Grant will perform her classics “Sing Your Praise to the Lord,” “Santa Claus Is Coming to Town,” and “Tennessee Christmas.” The festive lineup includes for KING & COUNTRY with Carin León (“O Come, O Come Emmanuel”), Cody Johnson (“White Christmas” and “I’ll Be Home for Christmas”), Ashley McBryde and Brittney Spencer (“Man With The Bag”), Jon Pardi (“Horsepower Sleigh”), and CeCe Winans (“Joy To The World”).

Grant is also hosting ABC Audio’s “When I Think Of Christmas” Holiday Special, airing over Thanksgiving weekend and Christmas week. The special features new holiday music from artists like Gabby Barrett, Dan + Shay, and Megan Moroney, alongside timeless favorites and tracks from Grant and Vince Gill’s recently released holiday album, When I Think of Christmas.

From November 29 through December 21, Grant and Gill will return to the Ryman Auditorium for their beloved “Christmas at the Ryman” residency. Known as one of Nashville’s most successful holiday traditions, the show has delighted nearly a quarter-million attendees across more than 100 performances.

Grant will join Lipscomb University to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the “Lighting of the Green” on Tuesday, Dec. 3, at Allen Arena Mall. The free event kicks off at 4 p.m., with a concert featuring Grant at 6 p.m., marking another cherished Nashville holiday tradition.

Throughout the season, Grant has been in the spotlight sharing stories and traditions with major outlets, including Entertainment Tonight, American Songwriter, and USA TODAY. She is also set to appear in an upcoming issue of PEOPLE magazine and will be a special guest on SXM Disney Hits’ “Be Our Guest” during the week of Dec. 2. Additionally, she’ll feature in Songcraft: Spotlight on Songwriters’ annual holiday episode.
