He has been honored by the Country Music Association with numerous CMA Awards, including two Entertainer of the Year awards and five Male Vocalist Awards.

In 2017, Vince Gill and Deacon Frey were hired by the Eagles in place of the late Glenn Frey.

To date, Gill holds the notable distinction being the only person to have won five consecutive CMA Awards for best male vocalist, in addition to tying with George Strait for the most wins in that category. In August 2007, Gill was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame by the Country Music Association. Additionally, he has received over 20 Grammy Awards, more than any other male country artist.

Outside of his prolific music career, Gill has been recognized for his community involvement and participation in charity events, such as the annual Vince Gill Celebrity Basketball Game and the Vinny Pro-Celebrity Golf Invitational.
