BACHELORETTE BAR CRAWL ON BROADWAY
Honky Tonk Central
As Jake Owen once said, get “down to the honkytonk” with the bachelorette party special ($75 per person) including all access to the VIP balcony with an open bar for 3 hours and private bartender.
Tequila Cowboy
Home to the ONLY mechanical bull on Broadway, this venue offers a live Rock Bar, Karma Lounge dance club, and game room to make the most of a night out with the gals.
Tootsies Orchid Lounge
A world famous honky tonk establishment that satisfies your dancing crave with 3 stages of non-stop live music. Willie Nelson was discovered here and “Tootsie’s Wall of Fame” is aligned with country music memorabilia any fan would enjoy. You can’t miss this unique purple building on Broadway!
Luke’s 32 Bridge
You won’t want the night to end shaking your country tail off at Luke Bryan’s new venue that opened last year. This venue features 6 floors, 8 bars, and 4 live music stages. Fill up on Luke’s favorite Southern and American cuisines or simply roll with a sushi bowl.
Nashville Pedal Tavern
This BYOB party bike can seat 15 and is an affordable way to explore the heart of downtown Nashville on wheels!
HOEDOWN AT HISTORICAL SIGHTS
Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum
Immerse yourself in the culture of Music City through the world’s largest repository of country music artifacts. Take a tour from the museum to Historic RCA Studio B where legends such as Elvis Presley and Dolly Parton recorded tracks.
Grand Ole Opry
If your bachelotette's favorite artist is not performing at the time, schedule a VIP backstage tour for a behind the scenes look of where history has been made. Beginning as a live radio broadcast in 1925, the Grand Ole Opry paved the way to success for countless country artists and is currently the longest running broadcast in American history.
Jack Daniel’s Distillery Tour
Although Jack Daniel’s Distillery is located in Lynchburg (about an hour from Nashville), it’s worth the trip to see the oldest registered distillery in the U.S. Schedule a tour to see the creation of Tennessee whiskey and you’ll appreciate the buzz even more!
Johnny Cash Museum
Fall into the ring of fire reliving the Man in Black’s journey shaping country music – conveniently located along Music Row.
Parthenon – Centennial Park
Take a selfie with a 42 foot tall replica of the original Parthenon from Athens, Greece. Need inspiration to decorate your first home after the wedding? Peep inside the museum to find 19th and 20th century sculptures and paintings.
