Nashville’s most notable attractions, but as one of the premiere live concert series in American history! Every week the Opry invites thousands of visitors into its house, and is broadcasted into the homes of millions! Aside from its long-standing legacy, the Opry showcases a veritable who’s who of country music for an always stellar, and unpredictable, time of only quality country. So as you begin to plan for your next visit to Nashville, be sure to keep the Grand Ole Opry in mind. Even if you’ve been a dozen times before, you’re sure to find a completely fresh show to entertain yet again!
Throughout February, the Grand Ole Opry will be hosted at its original home, the Ryman Auditorium. Though the show will still keep the same basic format, and include the always electric atmosphere of live radio, the Opry will also carry the tradition and charm that undeniably comes with performing in the historic Ryman Auditorium. While seeing the Grand Ole Opry in its new Opry House is a remarkable experience, there is something extra special about seeing the live country showcase unfold in the hallowed halls of the Ryman.
Ryman Auditorium Self-Guided Tours
Those that would like to get a full experience of the Ryman Auditorium and Grand Ole Opry would do well to take a self-guided tour of the building. Along the tour you’ll not only walk the historic Ryman, but also browse a variety of authentic memorabilia tied to the Opry’s many years in the building. Cited as “The Mother Church of Country Music,” the Ryman Auditorium is a must-see experience for all country fans visiting Nashville.
While this concert series is still a ways off, running from June 26 - July 31, it’s never too early to start planning for an event as popular as the Ryman Bluegrass Nights. Throughout its duration, the Ryman Bluegrass Nights will host select performances featuring the biggest names in bluegrass music. This year’s line-up includes Earl Scruggs, Vince Gill, Rhonda Vincent, Cherryholmes, Ricky Skaggs and Ralph Stanley, ensuring that each and every performance will be a solid look at the history and present state of bluegrass music.
