Washington, Harry Houdini, and Katharine Hepburn in its early years. From 1943 to 1974, the Ryman became home to the <a href="https://www.axs.com/artists/1109887/grand-ole-opry-tickets" target="_blank">Grand Ole Opry</a>, solidifying its place in music history.5 Since then, everyone from <a href="https://www.axs.com/artists/200153/bob-dylan-tickets" target="_blank">Bob Dylan</a> to Ringo Starr has played the Ryman, earning it a reputation as one of the most revered performance spaces in the world.
