The Grand Ole Opry is 100 years old as of 2025, so in early 2026 it is just over 100 years old.

How we calculate its age

  • The show began as the WSM Barn Dance on November 28, 1925, in Nashville, Tennessee.
  • It later took on the name “Grand Ole Opry” in 1927, but its founding date is still counted from 1925.
  • In 2025, multiple outlets marked its centennial, confirming it turned 100 years old that year.

So, if you’re asking “how old is the Grand Ole Opry” right now in 2026 , it’s a century-old institution, entering its 101st year since that first broadcast in 1925.
