Global country superstars Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks have been announced as hosts of the 58th annual Academy of Country Music Awards.

The event will take place on Thursday, May 11, at the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas.

"I am thrilled to return to host the ACM Awards, this time with my friend Garth," said Parton, who co-hosted last year with Gabby Barrett and Jimmie Allen. "While I've had the pleasure of spending time with him throughout the years, I can't believe we've never had the chance to work together."
