The PNC Plaza at Ryman Auditorium will officially open on April 7, and kick off with a food drive benefiting Second Harvest Food Bank.

The new community stage and plaza is located outside Cafe Lula.

Throughout the food drive, Ryman visitors can bring a food donation or make a monetary donation when purchasing a ticket for the Ryman tour.

The food drive concludes with Ryman Community Day presented by PNC Bank on May 30, when Tennessee residents can enjoy a free, self-guided tour. (Ryman Community Day text will be a live link to the community day event on the calendar)

Ryman guests can expect elevated cleaning protocols and precautions, and social distancing. Masks are required for all guests and staff.

Can’t make it? You can still donate to the Ryman’s food drive here.
