Things to Do Outside of Nashville
While there are endless ways to relax or stay active at the Nashville KOA Resort, you also won't want to miss out on all of the other recreational opportunities in Nashville, Tennessee, and the surrounding areas.
Nashville isn't called “Music City” for nothing. While visiting, be sure to check out all of the musical attractions, starting with the Grand Ole Opry. There's also the Country Music Hall of Fame and Ryman Auditorium nearby too.
Love learning about the local history? Be sure to visit some of the Civil War sites, Fort Negley and the Tennessee State Museum. To get up close and personal with all of the natural beauty this state offers, schedule a visit to the Cheekwood Estates and Garden or get your adrenaline pumping at Adventureworks.
It wouldn't be camping in the Music City without live performers! We have a long list of bands that perform at the campground regularly. For 2023, we've planned to have the local band Emberland perform every Tuesday & Thursday nights. Every Wednesday evening, local musician Ethan Anderson plays for our campers. We kick off each weekend with the Nashville KOA Road to Fame on Friday nights, which includes performances by some up-and-coming local bands. This series is planned in conjunction with a great local band, Velvet Rodeo, who perform on the campground many nights! And new for 2023 - we have a new Summer Concert Series with performances by the pool each Saturday from Memorial Day to Labor Day weekend. (Live Music schedule is always subject to change and cancelations).
