The Carolina Opry Show

The Carolina Opry continues to captivate audiences, drawing packed houses nearly four decades since its establishment. Calvin Gilmore, the owner and producer, brought live entertainment to Myrtle Beach when he opened the theater in 1986, and he’s been entertaining fans ever since.

Located near Restaurant Row on the north end of Myrtle Beach, the state-of-the-art, 2,200-seat theater hosts nightly family-friendly musical, dance, and theatrical performances, along with occasional concerts, matinees, and special events. Gilmore’s diverse variety shows encompass genres ranging from country and gospel to pop, rock, Broadway, and beyond. The stage has hosted renowned concert performers such as Leann Rimes, Travis Tritt, Gladys Knight, The Guess Who, Kenny G, Tanya Tucker, Johnny Mathis, and Air Supply.

“The Carolina Opry,” the theater’s eponymous show, stands as one of the Grand Strand’s longest-running performances, presenting top-tier vocalists, dancers, and musicians in a versatile showcase. The annual “Christmas Show of the South” has become a cherished holiday tradition, enticing visitors back year after year to savor the unique blend of Christmas cheer and beach ambiance.

The Carolina Opry boasts a spacious and ornate main lobby, complete with a gift shop, concession area, and ticket window. Most shows span two hours with a brief intermission.

Hailed as the #1 choice for nearly 40 years, The Carolina Opry has garnered national acclaim beyond the Grand Strand, featured in major media outlets such as The New York Times, USA Today, CNN, and NBC Nightly News.
