About the city: Nashville
Nashville, known as Music City, is one of the most appealing U.S. destinations for concerts, sports, and live entertainment. The city’s energy is felt everywhere, from the busy downtown streets to neighborhoods packed with bars, restaurants, and live-music venues. Visitors also appreciate the wide range of accommodations—from hotels right in the center to convenient options in surrounding areas—making it easy to turn an event into a comfortable city break.
When it comes to arriving and getting around, a major advantage is that Nashville International Airport (BNA) is close to the city, and downtown naturally becomes the starting point for most plans. Within the city, WeGo Public Transit helps you move around reliably, while the WeGo Star regional train is a convenient way to reach the heart of downtown, terminating at Riverfront Station just steps from Broadway. Thanks to clear main roads and key transport hubs, reaching the main arenas and stadiums is typically quick and straightforward—whether you use public transit, taxi/ride-share, or your own car.
When you’re not cheering or singing along, Nashville delivers a great “tourist bonus.” Take a walk along the iconic Broadway and its honky-tonk bars, soak up the vibe by the Cumberland River and the riverside parks, or cross the pedestrian bridge for stadium access and downtown skyline views. For a calmer break, you’ll find museums and cultural landmarks like the Ryman Auditorium and the Country Music Hall of Fame, plus neighborhoods such as The Gulch or 12South—perfect for a great dinner and an evening that matches the city’s rhythm.
