Cramped in pews with a very tall guy in front of me. Music and atmosphere good
We booked 10 months in advance and chose the most expensive seating option available. During NOv, Dec and Jan, the performances is at The Ryman which was great as this is the original home. We took a back stage tour during the day which was excellent. The performances in the evening were excellent, past and upcoming stars. The only disappointing part was the seats we had been allocated, they were 7 rows from the front which was fine, but on the side. Considering we booked so far in advance i would not recommend booking via viator, just go online and choose your seats, 7 rows back downstairs in the centre would be perfect.
Seats were very uncomfortable, ticket prices were extremely high to hear performers who were unknowns. Left at intermission. Listened to Martina Mc Bride one of my favorites. On the radio when we got home and she sounded terrible. Glad we left when we did.
