The Grand Ole Opry® presented by Humana® is set to celebrate its 90th birthday on Oct. 2 & 3 with a weekend full of Opry shows in which country favorites will share the stage with the Opry’s birthday cake, plus a special birthday concert, backstage tours, Free Opry Plaza Parties, and more!

The celebration is set to include two Opry performances on both Friday and Saturday nights. Little Big Town, Larry Gatlin & The Gatlin Brothers, Joe Diffie, Lorrie Morgan, Old Crow Medicine Show, and more will appear Friday night followed by Carrie Underwood, Trace Adkins, Charles Esten, The Oak Ridge Boys, and more Saturday.

The Oak Ridge Boys will perform during a special Opry Birthday Concert at 1:00 p.m. Oct. 3 at the Grand Ole Opry House.

The Plaza in front of the Opry House will be bustling with food, fun, and a free music stage throughout the weekend, with JT Hodges scheduled to play the stage Friday evening. Nashville is scheduled to salute the Opry Saturday when stars of ABC’s Nashville — Charles Esten, Sam Palladio, Chris Carmack, and Aubrey Peeples—celebrate with Plaza performances, headlining a day full of free music in the Plaza.
