Luke Combs, Carrie Underwood and more will headline the Grand Ole Opry’s first USO show this holiday season.  The Opry Live: USO Holiday Special, created in partnership with United Service Organizations, will feature performances by Josh Turner, Lauren Alaina, Craig Morgan (an Army veteran himself), as well as Jessie James Decker and duo The War & Treaty.

The United Service Organizations is a nonprofit that provides entertainment to service members and their families. The Opry Live: USO Holiday Special will be hosted by American Idol alum and USO Global Ambassador, Kellie Pickler, who said in a statement: “I’ve never worn the uniform, but I’m a proud supporter for those who do. As a Global Ambassador for the USO, I hope to share the importance of serving those who serve us all.”

Opry Live: USO Holiday Special will air on the Circle Network on December 18 at 9 p.m. ET and will be livestreamed on the USO and Circle All Access’ Facebook, Twitter and YouTube channels.
