If you are in Nashville today and looking for an unforgettable week, you are in for a treat, as the city is bursting with live music, enchanting festivals, and holiday magic. First up, today at the legendary Ryman Auditorium, country star Clay Walker is taking the stage at 7:30 PM, bringing his heartfelt hits and energetic performances to one of the nation’s most iconic venues. For those looking for something unique during the day, head to the Nashville Farmers’ Market between 11 and 2, where Ella Tierney will be performing as part of the Music at the Market series. You can browse fresh produce, artisanal treats, and enjoy great local music right in the heart of the city.

Shoppers and creative spirits will want to check out Markets for Makers, running today until 5 PM at a pop-up location. This market is perfect for discovering handmade gifts, home décor, and inspired works from dozens of local and regional makers, setting the stage for early holiday shopping and supporting Nashville’s creative community, as highlighted by Nashville.com.

The holiday transformation has already started at Gaylord Opryland Resort, where the spectacular A Country Christmas runs all week and beyond. According to The Tennessean, the resort dazzles with millions of lights, over-the-top displays, and a festive atmosphere. Ice skating on a giant outdoor rink, snow tubing down icy runs, and an immersive scavenger hunt for Snoopy’s Christmas decorations promise thrills for all ages. New this year is the ICE! attraction, featuring scenes from Charlie Brown, with brilliant ice sculptures hand-carved by international artists. And starting November 25, the resort adds a brand-new cirque holiday show filled with acrobatics and original music.

Looking into the week and the coming weekend, Nashville.com notes that the legendary Grand Ole Opry continues its run of world-class performances with shows nearly every night, featuring stars like Carrie Underwood and The Gatlin Brothers. The Cheekwood Harvest festival is still in full swing. Stroll through Pumpkin Village among blooming chrysanthemums and tens of thousands of pumpkins displayed throughout the gardens, and don’t miss the vibrant altar displays and authentic cuisine of El Día de los Muertos at Cheekwood.
