Tuesday Night Opry 5/27 & Opry Country Classics 5?29

There is another special show on tap this week at the Grand Ole Opry, specifically on Tuesday night as the Opry will have a rodeo-themed show. 

From the Opry: 

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (May 19, 2025) – The Grand Ole Opry, celebrating its 100th anniversary, is tipping its hat to Music City Rodeo, Nashville’s first-ever PRCA Pro Rodeo, with a special Tuesday night rodeo-themed show May 27, featuring performances by Opry member Vince Gill, Moe Bandy, Kaitlin Butts, Wyatt Flores, Marcus King, Lukas Nelson and Jenna Paulette. A number of PRCA rodeo athletes scheduled to participate in the weekend’s competitions will make special guest appearances throughout the show.

Tuesday May 27
7:00: Kaitlin Butts, Moe Bandy, Marcus King, Wyatt Flores
Intermission
8:20: Jeanna Paulette, Lukas Nelson, Vince Gill

On Thursday night is the final Opry Country Classics show for the spring series. With Larry Gatlin and the Gatlin Brothers no longer a part of this series, the format has changed to what the other Opry shows on running. The only difference is we are hearing the artists singing mostly classic country songs in place of their current hits. There is still a Spotlight Artist and this week it is Neal McCoy.

  2. Vegas should offer bets on when the 'Opry will offer up its first show featuring not a single 'Opry member.
    Praise and thanks to Vince Gill! He's one of the busiest guys in country music, but somehow finds the time to appear on the 'Opry quite regularly.
    THANK YOU VINCE!!!

    1. Agree with your comments Nat Hill IV. Plus, only 2 of 6 on Thursday. Of the 2 shows, Moe Bandy, Vince, Rhonda, Jim Lauderdale and T. Graham would be of interest to us. Nashville/Grand Ole Opry used to be our annual "big" trip - ended going about 10-years ago. Our go-to now are Bluegrass Festivals and Branson.

  3. I think the 'Opry lineups are often quite good. It's just hard to plan a trip fairly far in advance. Roll of the dice months away from a show.
