Nashville is bursting with personality this week, offering listeners a playlist of fun, adventure, and a touch of the unexpected. Tonight, experience the city’s famous live music at 3rd & Lindsley where Mandy Barnett delivers a performance steeped in classic Nashville soul. Tomorrow, music lovers can join the Full Moon Pickin’ Party under the stars at the Warner Parks Equestrian Center, a beloved summer bluegrass tradition with food trucks and dancing until late, supporting local park preservation efforts.
This weekend, the city is painted red at the quirky Tomato Art Festival in Five Points, August 8–9. With over 200 artists, a festive parade, a tomato contest, and even a chicken costume contest, it’s a uniquely Nashville celebration where art, food, and community blend into a tomato-laden adventure. For listeners chasing more intimate music, The Basement is hosting New Faces Night, an underground showcase of up-and-coming Nashville talent that often includes future stars.
Sports fans can check out a Nashville Sounds baseball game at First Horizon Park, home to one of the most lively atmospheres in minor league baseball. Tickets to Thursday’s game against the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp promise affordable family fun, cold beer, and a taste of American summer. For collegiate action, Vanderbilt University is a cornerstone, offering soccer, volleyball, and football games right in the city for those itching for campus spirit.
Listeners intrigued by Music City’s history can’t miss a tour of the iconic Ryman Auditorium, a venue that has shaped American music since 1892. This week, the Ryman has Happy Together—an electrifying nostalgic show that winds through chart-topping hits from the ‘60s and ‘70s, perfect for those craving musical roots. At the Country Music Hall of Fame, marvel at rotating exhibits and legendary memorabilia, or step into Robert’s Western World for a genuine honky-tonk experience with ice-cold beer and live country bands, no cover charge.
Art lovers are drawn to the Frist Art Museum, set in a stunning Art Deco post office—often featuring nationally acclaimed exhibitions spanning classic to contemporary. For a taste of Nashville’s creative heart, stroll through Five Points, where murals, indie galleries, and local boutiques reflect the city’s evolving style. Even more offbeat is the Hatch Show Print tour, where listeners can see one of America’s oldest working letterpress print shops and even try their hand at pressing a unique souvenir poster.
Get outside with a gentle paddle on the Cumberland River, renting a kayak for city skyline views, or unwind on the lush lawns of Centennial Park near the Parthenon replica—Nashville’s quirky full-scale homage to Ancient Greece. Nature seekers will want to head south to Radnor Lake for peaceful trails and chance wildlife sightings or take a guided zipline tour above the treetops at Fontanel.
Of course, no Nashville adventure is complete without a taste of its renowned food. Explore East Nashville’s hip eateries or sample legendary hot chicken at Prince’s or Hattie B’s, where the spicy heat is as iconic as the local music. Locals tip: try the biscuits at Biscuit Love in the Gulch for the fluffiest southern start to your day.
For travelers who want a truly interactive experience, sign up for a line dancing class—an energetic, welcoming way to get yourself moving and meet fellow adventurers. Or hop onto the Nashville Homes Of The Stars narrated bus tour, rolling through celebrity neighborhoods with plenty of stories, photo ops, and a bit of Nashville glamour.
