The show that made Nashville famous, the Grand Ole Opry is the country's longest continuously running radio show and airs every weekend from a theater adjacent to the Gaylord Opryland Resort. Over the years, the Opry has had several homes, including the Ryman Auditorium in downtown Nashville. In late 2003, the 4,400-seat Grand Ole Opry House got its first major refurbishment since 1974, when the program was moved from the Ryman to its current home in the Music Valley. Through it all, the Opry remains a comforting mix of country music and gentle humor that has endured for nearly three-quarters of a century. Over the decades, the program has featured nearly all the greats of country music. There is an Opry show on Tuesday and Friday (at 7pm), and two performances on Saturday (7 and 9:30pm). Additionally, a new Opry Country Classics performance on Thursday nights shines the spotlight on classic country songs that have defined country music for generations of fans.
