Nashville's Live Music Bar Crawl
Itinerary
Meet your guide and fellow crawlers at a renowned live music venue nestled in historic Printer’s Alley — a hidden gem of Nashville’s nightlife.
🎶 Enjoy performances from local original artists, blending well-known covers with their own original tracks. This venue has helped launch the careers of some of Music City’s best-kept secrets.
Next, the crawl heads to a bar located on 2nd Avenue, the former nightlife hub of Nashville before Broadway’s rise.
💵 Be sure to bring a $1 bill — the walls here are completely covered in money signed by guests from around the world. Make your mark and become a part of the story.
🪩 Soak in the local charm, live music, and an atmosphere that screams old-school Nashville.
Now it’s time to hit the main event: Broadway — the street that made Nashville world-famous.
🎸 Visit two legendary Broadway bars, each with its own story and impact on the city's music legacy. Enjoy live performances from Nashville artists, exclusive drink specials, and skip-the-line VIP access.
📚 Along the way, your guide will share insider stories about the venues, artists, and how Broadway became the heartbeat of Music City.
The night wraps up just steps from the legendary Ryman Auditorium — often called the “Mother Church of Country Music.”
📍 This final stop puts you in the perfect spot to continue the night out or grab a bite nearby. Your guide will be happy to offer recommendations for more live music, rooftop bars, and local favorites to keep the good times rolling.

Your Backstage Pass to Live Music in Nashville
🎤 The Experience:
This isn’t your average bar crawl — it’s a curated experience through the beating heart of Music City. The Nashville Live Music Bar Crawl takes you to 3–4 of the city’s most iconic live music venues, each featuring local artists performing live, and every stop with its own vibe, history, or wild story.
From hidden speakeasy lounges in Printer’s Alley, to upbeat spots on 2nd Avenue, and the world-famous Broadway strip, this crawl is all about getting off the tourist path and into the real Nashville music scene — the one locals live for.
Whether you're into country, rock, blues, or something in between, you’ll get a taste of it all. And the best part? Each venue offers exclusive drink specials, and you’ll enjoy skip-the-line VIP access — no waiting, no cover fees, just good music and great company.
🎗 A Tour With Heart:
One of our featured venues is more than just a music bar — it's a veteran-owned space that operates partially as a nonprofit, giving back to wounded veterans and their families. So, while you're enjoying the music and mingling, know you're supporting a meaningful mission, too.

21+ US Issued ID or Passport:
We love a good party — but Tennessee takes their ID laws very seriously, and so do the bars we visit.

We love a good party — but Tennessee takes their ID laws very seriously, and so do the bars we visit.
✔️ U.S. Guests: You’ll need a valid, government-issued photo ID (like a driver’s license or state ID).
🌍 International Guests: You must bring your passport. Not a copy. Not a photo. Not your home country’s driver’s license — it has to be your passport.
We know it sounds strict, and trust us — we’ve seen too many sad faces when someone gets turned away because they didn’t bring the right ID. It’s not our rule, it’s Tennessee state law, and the venues don’t mess around.
☔ Rain or Shine, the Show Goes On
This is Nashville — we don’t cancel a good time over a little weather! The crawl rolls rain or shine, and since we’re mostly inside live music venues (not just wandering around), you’ll stay mostly dry. That said, bring a jacket or an umbrella — soggy boots don’t dance well. 🎸🌧️
