Live Music and Clubs

No trip to Nashville [1] is complete without listening to some live music. Music City overflows with musicians and opportunities to hear them. So whether you catch a show at the Opry [2], stake out a seat at the the Bluebird Cafe [3], or enjoy a night at the symphony [4], be sure to make time for music during your visit.

Even before you arrive in the city, you can plan out your nights thanks to the Nashville Convention and Visitors Bureau (www.nashvillecvb.com [5]). Through a handy feature on the bureau’s website you can check out upcoming concerts a month or more in advance. Many venues will let you buy tickets in advance over the phone or online.

Published on Wednesday, the Nashville Scene always includes detailed entertainment listings and recommendations. The Tennessean, the city’s daily paper, publishes its entertainment insert on Friday.
