Trace and Taylor will celebrate the Opry's 85th

Some of country music’s favorite artists will be part of the excitement as the Grand Ole Opry reaches the culmination of its months-long 85th birthday celebration with a two-day Birthday Bash Oct. 8 and 9. Featuring Opry performances by award-winners Trace Adkins, Crystal Gayle, Dolly Parton, Taylor Swift, and many more, the Bash lands just ten days after the world-famous Opry’s planned Sept. 28 return to the Grand Ole Opry House after having been displaced by flooding last spring.
