    I've come here several times to watch Athletes Unlimited professional women's basketball games…read more Because this venue is so small, there are both pros and cons of its size. There is plenty of public parking nearby, the security and food lines go quickly, and you are always guaranteed a seat close to the action. However the seats have so little legroom it gets very uncomfortable to sit for any length of time. Even though there are plenty of food and drink options and the entertainment is on point, I always welcome the end of an event when I can finally stretch my legs!

    As my old review is from 8 years ago at this point, it seemed like it was overdue for an update…read more I've seen other shows here in that time, most recently this month as my wife wanted to catch the Empire of the Sun concert. It's still far from my favorite venue in Nashville, but it's older aesthetics kind of evoke nostalgia more than cries of "outdated" to me at this point. It feels permanently trapped in the late 20th century for sure-- interior paintings of Kiss and Judas Priest feel recent, as if (I know the latter is still touring) those acts just played to celebrate the release of their latest classic album to teenagers who paid $20 for tickets and waited in line at the box office of the venue to do so. If you're going to be GA on the floor, this place is as good as any. If you're going to be in the stands, hope for a show that isn't completely sold out as it can get very cramped (particularly if you're on the taller side) if you have neighbors on each side. Luckily for us, the floor was full but the stands were moderate and I had room to stretch my legs + stand as wished. Sound here was surprisingly good. It's smaller inside than I remember, so most views from the stands are solid. Entry was fast this time around, staff was super friendly and welcoming. We didn't buy any concessions, so I'm not positive how much a drink will run you these days but my 8 year old complaint about $11 beers seems funny as nowadays a comparable drink at Bridgestone or the like may run you close to double that. Parking lots in the area are a bit cheaper than they are near the newer, hipper venues (like The Pinnacle, Brooklyn Bowl). All in all--not a venue I ever seek out intentionally, but one that I'll definitely go to for the right show.

    Our first time at a minor league game and I have to say I really enjoyed it…read more If you've ever been to Petco park, you know the crowds, lack of affordable seating (nosebleed seats are not fun) can be off putting, not to mention the high cost of parking and traffic. So needless to say, this was such a nice surprise. While we were lucky enough to have been invited to a suite, looking around there is not a bad seat in the house. Lots of younger kids were in the stands, so I am looking forward to bringing my grandsons. Its a cashless facility, which I've never experienced before. I use my credit card for everything to get points, so it didnt bother me. The facility was pretty clean and I was happy to see a station for nursing mothers. Things like that truly show a family friendly vibe and I am here for it. The lines at the snack stands didnt seem too bad, and the baseball was full of oh no and oh yea moments. We even got a few full rowd boos over play calls. Nothing to do on a Friday night? Check out the Sounds at First Horizon Park!

It's a very nice minor league stadium with plenty of dining and drink options. There's a little something for everyone. Plus, it was a great game. We won! The place is clean and secure, and everyone I interacted with was super nice and friendly. Food prices are what you'd expect from a sports venue, but the quality was excellent--everything we had tasted great. If you're in town for a few days, I highly recommend catching a game here as part of your visit. You'll have a great time!

    The new Nissan Stadium in Nashville is a 2.1-million-square-foot, 60,000-seat enclosed venue under…read moreconstruction on the East Bank of the Cumberland River, scheduled for completion in February 2027. It will feature a translucent roof, 360-degree concourses, and 38% closer seating to the field, designed to host NFL, college football, concerts, and major events like the Super Bowl. Gayle and I had the chance to watch all the construction up close as we navigated from the pedestrian bridge to the Edgefield neighborhood. That included a non-ADA compliant walk-around to get to the bridge over the Interstate. This was a huge operation and we got as close as we could without trespassing. Then there's the present Nissan Stadium that will be torn down (for a parking lot) after the new Stadium is finished. This is the home of the NFL's Tennessee Titans, formally the Houston Oilers. Opened in 1999, this 67,000+ capacity open-air venue hosts football games, concerts, and major events like the CMA Music Festival. Game Day is probably pretty exciting here (including before and after Broadway).

Though the outside of the stadium is undergoing construction, the ease in entering and exiting wasn't so bad. We walked from the Holiday Inn Express and followed the signs (and the crowd) to the entrance line. Since we had General Admission tickets (the pit) we followed the signs to the line we were to wait in. The line was organized and monitored well. There was a stadium guy selling water while we waited. There are many text messages and emails in the days leading up to the concert, reminding you to make sure you have your QR code downloaded and ready to show at the gate. The will call window is open and would help with this if needed. Once the doors opened, the line moved rapidly and we were soon inside the stadium. There was a bathroom close, as well as appropriately priced food, and a short line to buy Coldplay merch. Coldplay was absolutely phenomenal. Friendly ushers pointed us in the right direction to go down into the pit. Once there we were able to purchase an adult beverage and get ready for some fun!
