The Carolina Opry Christmas Special, “The Christmas Show of the South" and the first nightly Christmas Special on the Grand Strand - and still the grandest of them all. The Carolina Opry has been a family tradition for dozens of seasons, bringing the spirit of Christmas to life with music, comedy and dance. The Christmas Special brings time-honored traditions blended with stunning changes, combining the traditional music of the season with Yuletide comedy for an evening of holiday entertainment you'll long remember.
This Holiday Season, Calvin Gilmore Theatre is pulling out all the stops and embodying the spirit of Christmas with their second to none, holiday decorations. The transformation takes place over a week where the crew works to create a winter wonderland including over 35 Christmas trees (including a 30 foot lobby tree with 25,000 lights,) 75 wreaths, over 5 miles of tree lighting wires, a gorgeous array of ornaments, and mounds of snow!
Christmas begins at The Carolina Opry. Often imitated, but never equaled, it remains The South's most loved holiday show; blending beloved classics with great new favorites, all bound together by fresh comedy and breathtaking dance. Come home to The Carolina Opry for Christmas. It's warm, it's funny, it's shamelessly sentimental, and your family is going to love it more than ever! The Carolina Opry is the only show that has won every major South Carolina Tourism award including the Governor's Cup and most Outstanding Attraction. It is the only show that has been featured by NBC Nightly News, USA Today, CNN, Variety and Hollywood Reporter.
This show is seasonal and only operates from November through to early January.

Opry was great! VIATOR experience was NOT! I booked via Viator the 11/25 matinee. On date of matinee drove 45 minutes from our rental condo to the Opry to find out that there was no matinee. Quite an inconvenience as my parents are in their 80's. As of December 2013 specific matinee dates were no longer available. Luckily Opry staff were able to reschedule us to a matinee later in the week. Contacted Viator that night via email and received an apology. Mailed a complaint to Las Vegas address, which is no longer available. OPRY ITSELF was terrific. It was done very professionally, had a variety of themes and the Opry was wonderfully decorated for the holidays! We plan to go back!

Carolina Opry needs to update their older talent with some new and fresh ideas and talent. Mr. Gumm is funny by his material is getting old and somewhat boring. A whole new performance would be wonderful._br/_
Thank you

We picked our tickets up at the ticket window upon arriving in Myrtle Beach and went back at showtime. It all went very smoothly, and there were no concerns about arriving and not getting seats to the show. We highly recommend purchasing tickets this way.

It is the third time we attend the Carolina Opry in the last 4 years and this was our first to the Christmas Special. The outfits and performers were spectacular. Well worth the cost of admission. I recommended same to our friends who frequent Myrtle Beach annually.

I expected more of the old Christmas music not even Blue Christmas. Also a lot of loud Christmas music I have never heard, which some of it I did not enjoy but overall it was good.

The Carolina Opry Christmas Show was fabulous. What a pleasant surprise to have music, dancing, great costumes and scenery and COMEDY all in one show. Let me be sure and mention that the Orchestra performed superbly. I would certainly visit that theatre everytime I am in Myrtle Beach. Thanks.
