Blake Shelton’s Ole Red Tishomingo restaurant and live music venue will celebrate its grand opening with an Opry-style performance and block party on Saturday, Sept. 30 in Tishomingo, Oklahoma.
Operated by Ryman Hospitality Properties, Ole Red Tishomingo will open its doors with a party featuring an outdoor stage with performances by RaeLynn and Opry members Jeannie Seely, John Conlee, and Ronnie Milsap. Shelton will co-host the Saturday, Sept. 30 show with 650 AM WSM’s Bill Cody. The free “Blake & Friends” concert will begin at 7 p.m. Central and will be live streamed on Ole Red’s Facebook page, facebook.com/OleRedTish/.
“For a song that meant so much to me to take this shape and come to life as Ole Red has is really mind-blowing,” said Shelton. “Our community is in for a treat with the Opry bringing their famed broadcast to Tishomingo for this special show. It’s a proud day for us Oklahomans.”
On Friday, Sept. 29 Shelton will perform an intimate, private concert from the Ole Red Tishomingo stage. Proceeds from the show will benefit the non-profit J.C. Reaching Out, a local charity that provides financial assistance to family members of people battling cancer. Just 130 tickets will be sold at $200 apiece and will be available on olered.com beginning Sept. 6 at 10 a.m. Central.
Ole Red Tishomingo opens just a few months before Ole Red Nashville, a multi-level 26,000-square-foot entertainment venue in the heart of Nashville’s famed Lower Broadway expected to debut in the spring of 2018.
