This year, Halloween isn’t just about dressing up as your favorite superhero or deceased politician. It also marks the kick-off of the 8th annual Americana Festival and Conference in Nashville. In the middle of all the festivities is the highly anticipated Americana Honors & Awards Show at the Ryman Auditorium which has already confirmed a performance roster of artists including The Avett Brothers, Emmylou Harris and Elizabeth Cook.

The Americana Music Association spiced up its performance list a little bit more recently, adding Old Crow Medicine Show and Todd Snider to the already-stacked group. The ceremony also promises an appearance by Joel Ely, who is being honored with the Life Time Achievement Award in Performance.

For tickets to the event, check out the Ryman box office. Or you can just buy a pass to take part in the all of the conference festivities (Oct. 31-Nov. 3). The $35 awards show ticket is included in the package.
