Trisha Yearwood Brings Friends — Including Reba McEntire — to the Opry for Breast Cancer Benefit

Trisha Yearwood is getting a little (more) help from her famous friends. Yearwood recently revealed Reba McEntire will join her on the Grand Ole Opry House stage March 22 for the second annual “Band As One Nashville Concert for the Cure: Trisha Yearwood & Friends,” a benefit supporting Susan G. Komen, the world’s leading breast cancer organization.

The star-studded evening will also include performances from Ashley McBryde, Charles Kelley, Lukas Nelson, Rissi Palmer, The War and Treaty, Hailey Whitters, and The Band Loula—all to raise funds and awareness for the local fight against breast cancer.

The cause is deeply personal to Yearwood. Nearly 15 years after losing her mother to the disease, she remains committed to helping other families avoid the same loss.

“I’ve been involved with Komen for years,” Yearwood says. “When they came to me last year and talked about raising money for the community of Nashville and keeping the money here, it just felt like a no-brainer.”

The 2025 inaugural concert took place at the Ryman Auditorium and proved so successful that organizers moved this year’s event to the larger Grand Ole Opry House to accommodate more fans — and raise even more money for the cause.

“I’m kind of hosting it and asking people to participate,” Yearwood says. “But it’s not a heavy lift for me other than just being a part of it. You pretty much won’t ask anybody who will say no. If their schedule’s open, they’re going to be there because everybody’s been affected by it.”

For McEntire, stepping onto the Opry stage for the event carries special meaning.

“I am honored to collaborate with Trisha and the other artists for this incredible show to raise awareness for such a meaningful cause,” McEntire said. “The Opry stage has always represented heart and tradition, and I’m proud to stand on that stage and support those affected by this disease.”
