The Grand Ole Opry, is an American icon and is also Nashville,
Tennessee’s number-one attraction. This humbling place is world-
famous for creating a one of a kind entertainment experience for audiences
of all ages.
Dedicated to honoring country music’s rich history
and dynamic present, the Grand Ole Opry
showcases a mix of country legends and the
contemporary chart- toppers who have followed in
their footsteps.
Many of those “Opry House Moments” are the result of
country music’s newest stars, superstars and country music legends
taking the same stage on the same night performing
a wide variety of musical styles. At any given Ole
Opry show, audiences can expect the best in country music,
bluegrass, comedy, gospel, and more performed by
Country Music Hall of Famers.
Many things about the Opry have changed over the years, including its members, the sound of its music, and even its home. But there's always that solid center to remind every singer or musician who steps inside that they take part in something much larger than themselves, that wherever they go they have a connection to the legends and the giants who came before them. The popularity of the Opry shows was star driven. Until 1938, the show had emphasized instrumental performances. Any singer was subordinate to the band. All that changed when young Roy Acuff joined the cast that year. His performance of "The Great Speckled Bird" his first night forever changed the Opry.
