“It is truly extraordinary how demand has grown over these past three years,” said Steve Buchanan, President, Opry Entertainment. “We have added several new major markets this year so that we can reach as many of our dedicated Nashville fans as possible all across America. Audiences have been consistently blown away by the performing and songwriting talent of our cast.”
“It’s so great to see the cast have an opportunity to take their show on the road again,” said Russell Ziecker, Executive Vice President, TV Music, Lionsgate. “The spirit and energy they bring to the stage is infectious.   They’ve all become Country Music evangelists and ambassadors of Nashville, both the show and the city.  It continues to amaze me – how many ways life-imitates-art-imitates-life on this show and with this cast.”

Now in its fourth season, the critically-acclaimed series Nashville is set against the backdrop of the city’s music scene and follows Rayna Jaymes and Juliette Barnes. Both women face personal and professional challenges as they navigate their paths as artists and individuals. Surrounding them and often complicating their lives are their family, friends and, in some cases, lovers, as well as the up-and-coming performers and songwriters trying to get ahead in the business. Music City can mean so many things to different people. In Nashville, musicians and songwriters are at the heart of the storm driven by their own ambitions. Some are fueled by their creativity and passion for fame. Others struggle to cope with the pressures of success and doing everything in their power to stay on top.
