OK… it’s part of a celebration of the Grand Ole Opry’s 80th anniversary, not Bill Monroe’s birthday, but the Opry is hosting a special Bill Monroe Bluegrass Celebration on October 15 at 1:00 p.m. The show will feature performances by Larry Sparks, Melonie Cannon, Shawn Camp, The Grascals and Opry members Ralph Stanley, The Osborne Brothers, and Jesse McReynolds.

Contact the Opry for ticket information.
