Things to do in Nashville, TN
Shopping:
Head to 12 South for the cutest boutiques. The whole street is just cute for pictures too.
To grab your cowboy boots, go to Fifth + Broadway and head straight to Tecovas. Fifth + Broadway also offers stores such as The NASH Collection (to grab your Nashville gear to bring home), Levi's, Freepeople, Sephora and much more for those last-minute items you forgot to pack.
The Gulch provides more boutiques like Jessie James Decker's own Kittenish & Rustler Hat Co. to customize your cowboy hat to wear for the weekend.
Bars:
Of course we have Broadway! Spend one night going bar hopping up and down the street of Broadway. Don't forget to hit Morgan Wallen's "This Bar" and my favorite is Kid Rock's Honky Tonk Bar (it has three levels, with three different vibes of music!).
Printers Alley is a local's favorite place to be on the weekends. Head there if you're wanting less of a tourist feel night.
Not feeling country music for the night? East Nashville provides more rock and indie genres of music. My favorite bars are Urban Cowboy and Mother's Ruin in East Nashville.
Tourist must-do's:
Book the tickets to The Grand Ole Opry, you won't regret it! It doesn't matter who's playing, the venue and energy will speak for itself.
Wanting some Nashville history? Grab tickets to tour The Country Music Hall of Fame. This is a great afternoon activity. It will only take a little over an hour to tour.
The Ryman Auditorium is a music venue that many artists stop on their tours at. Look at the Ryman's schedule and see if your favorite artist is playing.
Bridgestone Arena: Home to the Nashville Predators. Head to a hockey game or see if an artist is playing a show there. You can't go wrong with a country concert in Music City.
