A Grand Strand landmark and nationally recognised attraction, the theatre’s grand columns and sparkling cupola are unmissable, enchanting visitors to come and experience the excitement and showmanship for themselves.
Once inside, the grand lobby boasts 40 ft ceilings, a grand piano, and twin staircases that curve upward from either side of the lobby before leading to the luxurious auditorium. With newly installed upholstered seating, the performance space can comfortably accommodate up to 2,000 individuals with perfect sight lines from each seat.
The venue is perfect for hosting corporate annual meetings, awards ceremonies, graduations, local talent showcases, company anniversary celebrations, national touring acts, and so much more, as the stage is equipped with state-of-the-art production equipment.
Founded in 1986 with a vision that first-rate entertainment could thrive along the Grand Strand, The Carolina Opry Theater was the first show to open in Myrtle Beach and provided a breath of fresh air to the city. This sensational show went on to open its permanent theatre in 1992, further thrusting Myrtle Beach into the limelight.
In 1987, it was named the state’s Most Outstanding Attraction by the governor of South Carolina, and in 1992, USA Today credited it with starting the Myrtle Beach boom, attracting investment groups to follow suit and making the area as popular as it remains today.
The Carolina Opry Theater is a true cornerstone of Myrtle Beach’s entertainment legacy, celebrating nearly 40 years of unforgettable performances that continue to capture the heart and spirit of the city.
