CMA Fest Nashville, TN

Thursday is the beginning of CMA Fest in Nashville, TN. This is a four day music festival that if you're a fan of country music you'll not want to miss. There are various stages that offer pop-up concerts throughout downtown Nashville. Some of these are even free to attend. Additionally, at Nissan Stadium each night, there is a huge lineup of incredible artists.

Starting on Thursday at 10:15 a.m., the events start. There are several stages in which you can check out some incredible musicians. Here are a list of the stages that you can find these incredible artists on Thursday through Sunday.

Dr. Pepper Amp Stage - Located at Ascend Amphitheater.

Chevy Vibes Stage - Located at Walk of Fame Park

Good Molecules Reverb Stage - Located in Front of Bridgestone Arena.

Hard Rock Stage - Located in Front of The Hard Rock Cafe.

Riverfront Park - Located by 1st Avenue.

At Nissan Stadium the concerts begin at 8:00 pm each night. The lineup is extensive from Darius Rucker, Brooks and Dunn, Jason Aldean, Shaboozey, Kelsey Ballerini, Keith Urban, Blake Shelton, Carly Pearce, Luke Bryan, and many other awesome country music artists. Drop-off location can be found at the corner of 1st Avenue North and Woodland Street Bridge. For pick-up after the show each night, walk across the Pedestrian Bridge to either the Joseph Hotel, 8th and Broadway, 7th and Church, or by the Renaissance Hotel. There is also the Nazarene Church located in East Nashville.

For dining near all these events, head to Assembly Food Hall. There are plenty of dining options that have been recommended to me by post-it notes. This is an excellent experience with so many incredible musicians and performances beginning on Thursday. Another epic CMA Fest in Nashville, TN. #ridingwithkurt
