Had a blast! Music was great. Service for drinks wasn’t very good, but I would go back.

Music City lived up to its name. Just go on a weekday if you can. Jason aldeans bar line to get in took up the whole block on a Fri night. We couldn't get in but it's where the party is. 21 and under can get into first and second floors till 8. After 8 no entry. Third floor over 21 is req. Kid rocks bar has alot of bad language. Three nights in a row we walked out. Works like f__k flow nonstop. Good entertainment don't req that. Very noisy there. Bar hopping at its finest. Wear your tennis shoes. Alot of walking. Parking is very expensive. 45.00 for a day.

This is Broadway Street, etc. in downtown Nashville. Definitely worth a visit both during the day and night for the music, the boot and clothing shops, the restaurants....Yes, this is the tourist part of town, but it's also full of talented musicians, and a great place to go to experience any and all of them. Most of the bars have large windows that open to the sidewalks so you can stand outside and listen to music as you're walking by or just standing out front. There is a cool five-story Ole' Red, Kid Rock's bar, and many others here, many of which have cool rooftop bars as well. The Bridgestone arena is also here. A very walkable and clean downtown area. Much fun!

I am definitely coming back! Great bands endless entertainment!!!...Feels good tipping performers all night for great vibes! If it's not your music go next door or up a flight of stairs.

An essential American experience even if, or especially if, you're not a country music fan. Several blocks of music venues, most with the band right in front of an open window. Of course most bands are country, but there's plenty of rock too. Excellent people watching, and the best collection of neon signs I've ever seen. Note: We visited on Tuesday, and it was really busy. I can't imagine what it's like on Saturdays!

It's amazing how much it feels like a party out here even at random times, like a Monday afternoon. Certainly not like any other music street I've visited. Some I've spoken to compare if to the Vegas strip, but for people who don't like gambling and love music, as you can cover a lot of ground and listen to a ton of live bands over a very short period of time and without getting physically exhausted.

Wow! What a place! During the day, it's less busy, of course. But once evening hits, look out! 😉 It's a great time we tried to stop at many of the bars both day and evening. Some we just stopped in for a short time, others we stayed longer. 5th and Main has a massive food court with so many dining options as well. There sre some souvenir shops along the strip that all mostly carry the same items. We arrived in Nashville on Wednesday in August and stayed until Sunday morning. Wednesday was busy and it only got worse as the week went on! We had a blast, even being in our late 40's and 50. Lots of music to choose from and we heard some great bands! There was lots of security around, lots of homeless people as well, but they didn't bother us too much. Be prepared to say no if need be. It's a walkable area. We stayed 4 blocks from Broadway on the SoBro side (South of Broadway). Close enough to walk, but still a bit quieter. Yes, it's fairly expensive but we expected that. For us, it was vacation, and we were fine with it. It was an experience. We definitely had lots of fun. Met alot of great people, too! Nashville was on our list of places to visit. There are lots of other things to do away from the busy main street. Definitely recommend checking them out! Have fun and gets some rest before you go!
