The annual concert series will return to Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium this summer for its 31st year.

All shows begin at 7:30 p.m. and will be preceded by a 6 p.m. “Pickin’ on the Plaza” pre-show event on the Ryman’s PNC Plaza. These events feature live music from local bluegrass artists.

“Bluegrass Nights at the Ryman” has celebrated bluegrass music’s rich history since it was first introduced in 1994, when the series helped revive the Ryman following its renovation. Over the past three decades, it has become a cornerstone event in honoring the legacy of bluegrass pioneers like Bill Monroe, whose life-size statue was unveiled as part of the Ryman’s Icon Walk in 2017.

Season passes for all six shows are available now, with new passes available for purchase after Friday, Feb.16. Single tickets go on sale Friday, Feb. 21, at 10 a.m. CT. Season passes are priced at $190 for renewing pass holders and $200 for new purchasers until the first show. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit ryman.com/bluegrass.
