Gaylord Entertainment is a mid-sized hospitality and entertainment company based in Nashville, Tennessee. In 2012, the Gaylord Hotels brand and the rights to manage its four resort and convention center properties were sold to Marriott International, which continues to operate related venues in the broader Nashville area. Following the sale, Gaylord Entertainment merged into its wholly owned subsidiary, Ryman Hospitality Properties, Inc., and the combined entity now owns and operates the Grand Ole Opry, Ryman Auditorium, and WSM-AM. Through Ryman Hospitality Properties, the business sits in the hospitality and entertainment real estate sector, with a focus on iconic live-entertainment venues and associated media assets in Nashville. The company has engaged with the investment community in 2026, participating in several institutional investor events in early June, signaling ongoing public-market activity under the RHP umbrella.
