Help us make it rightOriginally built as the Union Gospel Tabernacle in 1892 by Captain Tom G. Ryman, this National Historic Landmark and Mother Church of Country Music is a Nashville icon. Most famous former home of the Grand Ole Opry, the Ryman is open for tours during the day and hosts concerts and events at night.

The Ryman Auditorium first opened its doors in 1892 as a vision of Captain Thomas G. Ryman. With the coming of the Grand Ole Opry show in 1943, the Ryman found its identity as the Mother Church of Country Music. In 1974, the Opry moved to its current home by the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center and left the Ryman vacant. It was not until twenty years later in 1994 that the Ryman...
Jill Brown says: My definition of training is: "making your MIND comfortable with the fact that your BODY is going to be a little uncomfortable".

I took my wife here for a surprise Christmas gift. she's a huge Amy Grant and Vince Gill fan. They put on a fantastic show and my wife was floored. The Roman is a great forum for concerts and we were thouroghly impressed. It's old school but that was the charm.
The Ryman was top of our list in Nashville & it certainly delivered, history just oozes out of it, staff were very friendly & knowledgeable, you can even have your photo taken on the stage! we sat for a while and just imagined all the greats that have walked through the doors! I suggest everyone does the same too.
