See “Music City” Transform into a Winter Wonderland

With Halloween not even yet past us, some may think it is too early to plan ahead for a holiday vacation. However, come November, Nashville trades in its boots and spurs for snowflakes and sparkly lights as it prepares for the holiday season. In addition to the already fantastic shows and attractions found in Nashville throughout the year, visitors can experience fun holiday-themed attractions in November and December. The easiest way to plan your holiday vacation in Nashville is by reserving one of these pre-built holiday vacation packages.

Gaylord Opryland Resort Country Christmas

The Gaylord Opryland Hotel is more than just a place to rest your head for the night: the hotel also offers numerous activities and attractions. This package features tickets to ICE! and the Radio City Rockettes, as well as three nights of lodging in Nashville, and visitors also have the option of staying at the Gaylord Opryland, which will give them access to the many attractions, shopping, and dining options in the resort. ICE! is an extreme ice sculpture attraction–you will not see any swans or hearts carved out of ice here! ICE! features over 2 million pounds of crystal clear ice carved into different scenes from a popular Christmas tale. The theme of this year’s ICE! is A Charlie Brown Christmas. The other inclusion in this package is tickets to the Radio City Rockettes, which features the fabulous dancing and high kicks of the legendary Rockettes.

Nashville’s Radio City Rockettes Winter Vacation Package

With two nights of lodging and tickets to the Radio City Rockettes, this package is the perfect choice for a weekend vacation to put you in the holiday spirit. You can choose to stay at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel and get some Christmas shopping done during your trip, or you can pick a hotel in downtown Nashville. This package also includes an evening at the Radio City Christmas Spectacular. This show from the iconic Radio City Music Hall brings the best of holiday music to the stage combined with the fantastic talent of the Radio City Rockettes. The Radio City Christmas Spectacular is sure to bring some holiday cheer to any Scrooge.

If you are looking for additional holiday activities to enjoy in Nashville, the Nashville City Lights Tour and Louise Mandrell’s “Joy To The World” Christmas Dinner & Show are excellent additions to these vacation packages or any trip to Nashville during the holiday season.

Gaylord Opry House and Ryman Auditorium Line-Up

You will find a variety of shows awaiting you in Nashville during the holiday season like the famous Radio City Rockettes in the Grand Ole Opry House. See the high-kicking, fast pace entertainment that only the Rockettes can provide with their different holiday dance numbers. From classical renditions of the “12 Days of Christmas” to religious numbers like the “Living Nativity,” this troupe of talented ladies bring the holiday spirit to life in the renowned Opry House. Dating back to 1925, this dance group has grown into a piece of Americana. Now, with 36 women making up the high-kick line, you can be sure that this talented group of performers will be around to make every holiday season special.

Just because the Radio City Rockettes are performing in the Grand Ole Opry House doesn’t mean that the iconic show is put on hold! Join the many performers of the Grand Ole Opry in the Ryman Auditorium on 116 Fifth Avenue North in Nashville. With famous performers like Clint Black, Trace Adkins, The Gatlins, Randy Travis, Trisha Yearwood and more making appearances during different performances, you can be sure that the entertainment is still first-class in the Ryman Auditorium. There are still plenty of performances to catch during the week and with these different locations, you can enjoy both shows in the same evening!

Once the Rockettes have returned to Radio City for the season, the Grand Ole Opry House opens up for the Grand Ole Opry and the new Grand Ole Opry Classics show. Enjoy the classic country hits played by the legends themselves or by some of the newer performers. After you hear the hits, a live band takes to the stage and old-fashioned square dancing ensues. Tickets for this show can be ordered separately or can be paired with Grand Ole Opry Tickets for an even better deal. This show provides the old sounds that you love with newer performance styles of today.
