Alaina will kick off the series on November 29, followed by McCreery on December 3. Adkins will perform on December 7, with Lady A taking the stage on December 11, and Janson performing on December 18. More artists are expected to be announced in the near future.
Both McCreery and Alaina were also part of last year’s Opry Country Christmas as well.
“The Opry, country music and Christmastime, What’s not to love?” McCreery previously reflected to Everything Nash. “It’s just my favorite season. It’s my favorite kind of music. I sing Christmas music all year long, so to get to do it at the Grand Ole Opry, and have a packed house there at the Opry House, I’m gonna be in hog heaven. I love it. I can’t wait for that.”
Alaina always makes the holidays and the Opry a family affair, which will likely happen even more so this year, since she is engaged to be married.
“The Opry’s my favorite place in the whole wide world, and Christmas is my favorite time of year,” Alaina told Everything Nash in 2022. “So it marries my two favorite things, just because of the deep-rooted tradition with the Opry and with Christmas and what Christmas means to me, and what the Opry means to me, It means family to me, both of them, and being with family and celebrating life. They bear very well together for me. So I’m very excited and hopefully, I can get some family members to come and be a part of it.
“My family goes to Opryland every year,” the Grand Ole Opry member continued. “I take my nephews every year to see the lights. So the Opry has already been a tradition of Christmas for us for the last few years. And now just to perform is the icing on the cake.”
Orpy Country Christmas will be hosted by Larry Gatlin. The shows will also air on WSM Radio, as well all WSM and Opry digital platforms. Tickets for Opry Country Christmas are on sale now. Find more information at Opry.com.
