Frequently Asked Questions
What's on in Nashville tonight?
Every night in Nashville, Broadway’s 20+ honky-tonks each have 3–6 free live bands rotating from 10am to 3am — no cover. On top of that, the Grand Ole Opry runs Tuesday/Friday/Saturday, indie rooms like the Bluebird, Basement East, and 3rd & Lindsley host nightly shows, and Bridgestone Arena, Ascend Amphitheater, and FirstBank Amphitheater book major touring artists most weekends.
Which Broadway honky-tonk has the best live music?
It depends on your vibe: Robert’s Western World for pure traditional country and Brazilbilly; Tootsie’s Orchid Lounge for the OG honky-tonk feel and legendary history; Kid Rock’s and Nudie’s for high-energy multi-floor party; Luke’s 32 Bridge and Ole Red for polished rooftop views; Honky Tonk Central for three stages under one roof; Legends Corner for classic country all day; Layla’s for pure bluegrass and Americana.
Are there honky-tonks off Broadway?
Yes. Bourbon Street Blues & Boogie Bar in Printers Alley has nightly live blues. Losers Bar in Midtown draws songwriters. Nashville Palace in Music Valley (near the Opry) has been hosting country legends since 1977 — Randy Travis was discovered there.
What sports teams play in Nashville?
NFL Titans at Nissan Stadium (walk from Cumberland Retreat and Deacon’s House), NHL Predators at Bridgestone Arena (walk from Mockingbird and Southern Charm), MLS Nashville SC at Geodis Park (Wedgewood-Houston), and MiLB Nashville Sounds at First Horizon Park (Germantown — walk from Wildflower).
Are Grand Ole Opry shows every night?
The Opry runs shows Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday most weeks year-round, with additional shows during CMA Fest week, holidays, and special events. Music City Magnolia’s Dreamwood is the closest rental — a 5-minute drive.
When are Nashville's farmers markets and craft markets?
Nashville Farmers’ Market (downtown, at Bicentennial Mall) runs Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays year-round. East Nashville Farmers Market runs Tuesday afternoons (May–Oct). Franklin Farmers Market runs Saturday mornings. Porter Flea holds two annual maker fairs (Summer and Holiday). The Nashville Flea Market at the Fairgrounds runs the 4th weekend of every month.
What festivals happen in Nashville each year?
Signature Nashville festivals include CMA Fest (June), Nashville Hot Chicken Festival (July 4), Music City Food + Wine Festival (spring), Oktoberfest Germantown (October), the Nashville Wine Auction Pairings series, and the Second Saturday Downtown Art Crawl.
Where should I stay for a Nashville SC game at Geodis Park?
Geodis Park is in Wedgewood-Houston. The closest MCM properties are Mockingbird and Southern Charm — quick 8–10 minute rideshare, or bike/scoot down.
How do I get to Nissan Stadium from downtown vacation rentals?
The pedestrian bridge across the Cumberland River connects Lower Broadway directly to the East Bank — about a 15-minute walk. From MCM’s Mockingbird or Southern Charm you can walk to Broadway then across. For a walk-only route, stay at Cumberland Retreat or Deacon’s House on the East Bank side.
