Sugarland's Jennifer Nettles and Kristian Bush are giving regular folks a chance to be apart of the 46th Annual ACM Awards with the first-ever ACM Fan Jam. The fans-only concert will take place at Las Vegas' Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino during and after the ACM Awards -- which are held at Sin City's MGM Grand Garden Arena -- April 3.

"I am wound up about the ACM Fan Jam," Jennifer says. "It's going to be like hosting our own ACM party for the fans. They'll get to see the show and have their own private show in the same evening! It's like having your biscuit and eating it, too, all in one big jar of Fan Jam!"

Fan Jam will include performances from Sugarland and other TBA artists, as well as three live remotes into the ACM Awards. The concert will also feature live performances from upcoming country artists and prizes and special giveaways such as autographed guitars, trip packages and merchandise. Tickets for the concert are $35 and $55 and go on sale Wednesday (January 12).

Concert attire is suggested for Fan Jam attendees, since there will be many performances and appearances after the telecast concludes.

Tickets for the ACM Awards and Girls' Night Out: Superstar Women of Country taping, which takes places April 4, also go on sale January 12 at 10:00 AM PT here.

The 46th Annual ACM Awards will air live on CBS April 3 at 8:00 PM ET/delayed PT.

Sugarland will kick off the 2011 leg of their Incredible Machine tour March 3 in Houston, Texas. Get more info and dates here.
