Nominations were announced months earlier by Steven Curtis Chapman and Toby McKeehan.[2]

The event was transmitted live to theaters in 50 cities as part of Regal Entertainment Group "One Night Only" event. The livecast was shown at Regal Cinemas, United Artists Theatres, and Edwards Theatres.[1]

The 35th GMA Music Awards was scheduled to be broadcast on May 28, on the United Paramount Network (UPN), 30 days after the ceremony.[3] In the time between recording and intended broadcast date, on May 13, awards ceremony host Deion Sanders left The NFL Today, a CBS network program (UPN acquired CBS in 2000), in a contract dispute.[4] Subsequently, UPN cancelled the broadcast of the awards ceremony, in a similar move to CBS' 60 Minutes in February 1989, when a story on Richard Petty intending to air on the show promoting the network's broadcast of the Daytona 500 was pulled after Diane Sawyer, who did the report, defected to ABC. That story was later edited and rewritten with Harry Reasoner the following season, in December 1989.

The ceremony was eventually broadcast in December 2004 on Pax (now Ion Television).[5]

MercyMe won Artist of the Year, plus two other awards, while Jeremy Camp was awarded New Artist of the Year.
