The Grand Ole Opry will join forces with Women Rock for the Cure during the ninth annual Opry Goes Pink show on Oct. 24.

Women Rock for the Cure is a Nashville-based nonprofit committed to connecting and supporting young women facing breast cancer

Artists slated to perform include Trisha Yearwood, LANco, Easton Corbin, Runaway June and Kelsea Ballerini, who will have the honor of flipping the switch on the Opry’s signature barn backdrop, turning it pink for the Opry’s show.

Beginning today (Oct. 5), $5 from every Opry ticket sold will be donated to Women Rock for the Cure.
