Opryland USA wasn’t just a theme park — it was where Nashvillians made lasting memories.
The park, which operated from 1972 to 1997, introduced rides like the Grizzly River Rampage, Flume Zoom (aka the log ride), and Screamin’ Delta Demon to Nashville’s lore. Even the Hangman roller coaster made its mark in the park’s final years.
If you still feel a sense of nostalgia every time you pass the mall, here’s your chance to reminisce a bit more.
