Friday Night in Abita

Abita Spings is a perfect little Louisiana town. Just a few miles from where I grew up, once famous for it's healing springs, now more so for the delicious brewed beer, like Abita Amber, my favorite beer in the world, and equally on the map for the quaint Abita Springs Opry. Friday night means one thing in Abita...the Opry.


The Abita Springs Opry is a series of music concerts held six times a year and is produced by a nonprofit organization, Abita Opry Inc. The show has the mission of preserving and presenting Louisiana "Roots" music. Our music is played primarily acoustically, in its original form.

Our main thrust is old-time Country, Bluegrass, and traditional Southern Gospel music, but we often present other forms of traditional Louisiana music such as Cajun, Zydeco, Irish, or other types that reflect the many different groups of people who are part of our diverse culture.


You can listen to past performances on their website. http://www.abitaopry.org
