The Grand Ole Opry raised the curtain on a brand new set on Saturday — marking the show’s first major set change in over 20 years.

The $4 million renovation includes a new barn with lighting elements, a halo lighting effect for the “The Circle,” and new audio and video capabilities.

The first Saturday Night Opry show with the new stage featured a cast of Jon Pardi, The Oak Ridge Boys, Kat and Alex, Don Schlitz, The War and Treaty, Ricky Skaggs, and Mark Wills. The cast opened the show with “Will the Circle Be Unbroken” to unveil the new stage.
