Ryman Auditorium

Originally 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 building was recently honored as Pollstar Magazine’s Theatre of the Year for a third time and is currently the Academy of Country Music Venue of the Year.
