If you are waking up in Nashville and wondering what to do this week, you are in luck, because Music City is wide awake and ready to show off.
According to Visit Music City’s official events calendar, your midweek happy hour is basically planned for you. Wine Down Wednesday kicks off this afternoon at Frothy Monkey’s Nations location, running on Wednesdays from late May into August. Listeners can expect rotating wine flights, light bites, and a laid back, neighborhood vibe that’s perfect if you want something social but not too rowdy before a bigger night out.
If laughter is more your speed, Nashville-tn dot events lists a comedy show tonight at Zanies Comedy Night Club in Nashville. Doors usually open early for their evening shows, and you can grab food and drinks while catching stand up from touring comics and local favorites. Zanies is an intimate club, so it’s a great spot if listeners want to be right up close to the action.
For live music, SeatGeek’s Nashville event calendar and Nashville-theatre dot com both show a busy slate of concerts this week. Marathon Music Works is hosting touring acts around this date, and Nashville Theatre highlights artists like Joshua Slone headlining Marathon Music Works in May. It’s a classic warehouse style venue with plenty of space to dance, so check the listings there if you want a high energy show to cap off your night.
If you’re looking toward the weekend, StyleBlueprint’s May event guide for Nashville is packed with special happenings. They feature everything from charity galas and ticketed parties, where prices can start around fifty dollars and go up to a couple hundred for bigger benefits, to outdoor food and drink festivals that are perfect for a full Saturday in the sun. It’s a good place to find those uniquely Nashville events that mix Southern style with a bit of downtown sparkle.
For daytime fun, Vacations Made Easy highlights the Redneck Comedy Bus Tour as a top May activity. You roll through Nashville on a decked out bus, hearing wild stories, local lore, and plenty of jokes while you cruise past honky tonks and landmarks. It’s a fun way for listeners to see the city if you don’t want to plan your own route.
And of course, the Ryman Auditorium keeps its calendar busy with tours throughout May, letting you walk the same stage that’s hosted legends for generations. Pair a daytime Ryman visit with an evening show on Lower Broadway and you’ve basically built the classic Nashville experience in one day.
Whether you end up sipping wine at Frothy Monkey, laughing at Zanies, singing along at Marathon Music Works, or rolling through town on the Redneck Comedy Bus Tour, Nashville has plenty to keep your week and weekend packed.
