Parker McCollum Set to Help Unveil Country Radio Hall of Fame 2026 Class

Parker McCollum will take the stage at CRS Honors on March 18 to help announce the Country Radio Hall of Fame Class of 2026, adding star power to country radio's biggest night of recognition. The Texas-born singer, who's been climbing the charts with hits like "Handle on You" and "Heart Like Mine," brings his signature charm to an evening celebrating the industry's most influential voices.

The ceremony doubles as the reveal moment for key ACM Radio Award winners, including Station of the Year and On-Air Personality of the Year across multiple market sizes. These announcements follow the recent unveiling of nominees and build anticipation for the remaining winners to be named during the New Faces of Country Music Show.

HARDY and Frank Ray will deliver live performances at the Nashville event, hosted once again by CRB Board President Kurt Johnson with opening remarks from Executive Director RJ Curtis. The evening also honors the next generation with scholarship presentations, including the Rusty Walker Scholarship going to Presleigh Bearden, Karly Duggan, and Erin Merimonti.

While online registration has closed for CRS 2026, attendees can still register on-site in Nashville for $799 through the event's start. The ceremony continues CRS's tradition of spotlighting the radio personalities and stations that shape country music's reach across America.
