opry
Grand Ole venue
Opry is a dialectal or folksy spelling of opera, used almost exclusively in reference to the Grand Ole Opry, the famous country music venue and radio program in Nashville.
The spelling captures the pronunciation common in Southern American English and has become inseparable from country music tradition: We're going to the Opry this weekend.
