Music City doesnt miss a beat when it comes to

making your visit a memorable one. A full slate of
entertaining options, including festivals, concerts
and celebrations, are all on tap for you to enjoy!
By Cindy Sanders
Ongoing Events
Music sets the tone for year-round fun. Weekly

of country music royalty. From November to January,
the Opry originates from its former home at the Ryman
Auditorium, which also plays host to concerts throughout
the year. Download the free Nashville Live Music App with

Summer
Sunshine and summertime are an

unbeatable combination especially when
you add music, food and fun to the mix. The
summer kicks off with four days of nonstop
performances at the CMA Music Festival
and at Bonnaroo in nearby Manchester
(both June 11-14). Those two not-to-miss
events are followed by a birthday bash for
the nation. The free Music City July 4th:
Let Freedom Sing! event features one
of the countrys most spectacular fireworks
displays accompanied by live entertainment
throughout the day and night. In fact,
if theres one thing Music City loves, its a
free outdoor concert. Locals and guests alike
flock downtown for Live on the Green,
featuring top indie acts through August
and September at Public Square Park.
The city hit a home run with First
Tennessee Park as the Nashville Sounds
new downtown baseball stadium (games
run all summer long). Other summer events
include the annual Tomato Art Fest in East
Nashville, Highballs & Hydrangeas at
Cheekwood Botanical Garden and Museum
of Art, Nashville Restaurant Week at
local eateries around town and the Music
City Festival & BBQ Championship
at Riverfront Park.
Autumn
Not all of Music Citys hits are on the

radio. The NFL Tennessee Titans and
the NHL Nashville Predators bring the
action to LP Field and Bridgestone Arena
that sports-loving visitors wont want to
miss. In late September, female athletes
get in the game as thousands line up for
the annual Womens Half Marathon.
Top to bottom: Carrie Underwood performs at the

Grand Ole Opry. Highballs & Hydrangeas is held at
Cheekwood Botanical Garden and Museum of Art.
The Tennessee Titans draw fans at LP Field.
Opposite: You can count on a lot of action at
any of the Tennessee Titans home games.
The beautiful fall weather is the perfect

backdrop for dozens of special celebrations.
Everyone in the family will enjoy the
Tennessee State Fair, Tennessee
Fall Craft Fair, Southern Festival of
Books and Boo at the Zoo, plus a host
of other Halloween hauntings.
Foodies also love Nashville in the fall as
celebrated chefs take center stage during the
annual Music City Food + Wine Festival
featuring two days of culinary creations set
to the soundtrack of live music. The Music
City Cookoff, Nashville Beer Festival and
Oktoberfest are also guaranteed to
please the palate.
Winter
The year ends as it begins on a high

note. In early November, Bridgestone Arena
plays host to two star-studded television
events. The industrys brightest stars come
together for countrys biggest night at
the annual CMA Awards. Later that week,
artists from multiple genres return to the
arena to tape the annual CMA Country
Christmas show, which airs later in
December. For ticket information on
either event, go to cmaworld.com.

is in full swing with attractions and venues
throughout the city featuring seasonal
celebrations. The magical family tradition
of A Country Christmas at Gaylord
Opryland Resort & Convention
Center includes giant ice sculptures,
events featuring favorite DreamWorks
characters, musical dinner shows,
snow tubing and an outdoor ice rink.
Although Father Time might be
winding down the clock on 2015, there
is still plenty of excitement to be found.
On Dec. 30, the annual Music City Bowl
brings collegiate football action to LP
Field as an SEC team goes up against a
rival from the ACC or Big Ten.
The next day, thousands gather
downtown for the Jack Daniels
New Years Eve Bash on Broadway
featuring an evening of high-energy
concerts followed by the spectacular
Music Note Drop, triggering fireworks
and confetti cannons as the clock strikes
midnight. Lady Antebellum headlined
last years free event.

If youre used to shelling out hundreds

of dollars to see your favorite artists in
concert, Nashville will probably surprise
you. Of course, Music City does host
big-name artists in sold-out concerts
year round, but what sets our city apart
is that much of the music here can be
enjoyed without spending a dime.
By Jessica Mozo
Bands play for the crowd during the Tootsies Orchid Lounge 53rd Birthday Celebration.
Free music plays 24/7 in Nashville, and

all the music lover has to do is stroll around
downtown to take it in. No-cover honky tonks
line both sides of Broadway, known as Honky
Tonk Highway. Free music venues such
as The Second Fiddle, Whiskey Bent
Saloon and Tootsies Orchid Lounge keep
the music going from about 10 a.m. until 3 in
