Prepare yourself for the award-winning Carolina Opry, beautifully blending two hours of critically acclaimed music, comedy and dance, in a luxurious theater with state-of-the-art lighting and sound. The Carolina Opry is full of lively entertainment that has been thrilling hundreds of thousands of visitors who pass through its doors each year for over 30 years. CNBC has called it the “Top Attraction in Myrtle Beach,” The New York Times has said it’s “a hit with visitors,” and the Wall Street Journal has dubbed it “a fast-paced all-American show.”
