Wynonna Judd to Host ‘Christmas at the Opry’

Wynonna Judd is set to host ‘Christmas at the Opry,’ airing from Nashville’s Grand Ole Opry House on NBC on Thursday, Dec. 7, beginning at 8 p.m. ET, and airing on Peacock the following day.

Joining Judd is a stellar slate of performers, including Brenda Lee, Kelly Clarkson, Mickey Guyton, Lauren Alaina, BRELAND, Trace Adkins, Chris Janson, Chrissy Metz, Meghan Patrick, Mitchell Tenpenny and Adam Doleac.

The two-hour music special will feature several top artists performing an array of holiday classics alongside some of today’s most impactful music. The show will be taped on Tuesday, Oct. 3 at the Grand Ole Opry House, beginning at 7 p.m. CT.

Earlier this week, Judd was honored during the inaugural People’s Choice Country Awards with the country champion award.

“Wynonna is one of the most recognized and lauded performers in country music,” said Cassandra Tryon, senior vp, Live Events, NBCUniversal Entertainment, in a statement. “Not only is she incredibly talented, her selflessness and passion for putting the needs of others in the spotlight is unmatched. We can’t think of a better person to honor as our inaugural ‘Country Champion’ and to celebrate the holidays with across these two major country music events.” 

Christmas at the Opry is executive produced by Jesse Ignjatovic, Evan Prager and Barb Bialkowski for Den of Thieves along with RAC Clark and Jen Jones.

Both Christmas at the Opry and People’s Choice Country Awards reflect collaborations following NBCUniversal’s equity investment in Opry Entertainment Group alongside Atairos.
