And srsly you can spend half a day in Carter's new place if you want to. But also for the non-gear heads…
Food is good - Peg Leg Porkers is exceptional and Hattie B’s excellent. there was at least one other good bbq place we went as well - will try and remember
Third Man Records
Musicians Hall of Fame - not just the country one
I’ve heard RCAStudios is a great tour but we didn’t have time when we were there
Will you be there in time for the Isbell Ryman shows?
Just head for Broadway in the first instance. Loads to see and do across the main drag and the streets running off it and plenty of great live music bars (Honky Tonk Central, Rippy's, Tootsie's etc etc etc). The Bluebird Cafe on Hillsboro Pike is a tiny joint where many famous country stars were discovered - including Garth Brooks and Taylor Swift. If you can get in, go for it (you may want to try and book before you go out there). Pop into The Corner Pub over the road for a drink - you may glimpse someone famous there if that's your bag. Santa's Pub is worth a visit too - karaoke bar only serving (last time I went there) beer but smoking allowed as it's a glowified trailer, so beware!
Loads of great places to eat as well - too many to mention.
For an evening Honky Tonk, my favourite is Roberts Western (a couple of doors along). Really good kick-ass vibe and in your face bands.
Definitely visit the RCA Studio if you can, and perhaps the Johnny Cash Museum.
Third Man is near to Carter Vintage, so you can do those together.
For BBQ, I would wholly recommend Martin's. You will have to queue up (if at an obvious meal hour), but it is well worth it...
Nashville is great, with a lot of party people and a lot of energy.
A fab place !!!!
Mission is meant to be great but we didn't have time. Rodney Scotts BBQ is also ace - we didn't go in Nashville but did go to the one in Charleston and it was The Good Shit
Patterson House is a great bar. It's where the cool kids go and you'll have to queue to get into but well worth it. Ignore the menu and talk the barman about what you want - they'll sort you out. Catbird Seat is above Patterson House and meant to be one of the best restaurants in town but be aware getting a reservation is extremely difficult.
Husk should be great. We went to the Charleston one and it was good, but not quite as good as some other great places we already eaten that week. But the Nashville one is meant to be better.
Looks innocent enough....

We were 50/50 between doing that and NYC for my 40th but couldn't make the dates work - gutted!

As others have said, RCA studios are worth including in the Country Music Hall Of Fame- if you don’t book in advance, you won’t get in. They’re very intimate tours.

Have to try Nashville Hot Chicken, Hattie B's is my favourite but Prince's is decent enough.
Tour of Grand Ole Opry is good, but sounds like you can't in, hopefully that's just timing on the websites part. Johnny Cash museum is decent. Music Hall of Fames are good too.
The NHL team are based right in the centre too, I haven't had the chance to go yet, but you might be able to catch a preseason game.
Just watch out for the Nazi's that have been hanging out there of late....
