Events this week 🗓️

Looking for something fun to do this weekend? Let’s get to the good stuff.

  • The Tudor queens turned pop icons are in town. If you want something high‑energy but indoors and cozy, this modern retelling of Henry VIII’s six wives plays like a stadium concert inside Andrew Jackson Hall.

  • February 5–8, 2026 | Evening & matinee performances | Tennessee Performing Arts Center (Andrew Jackson Hall)

  • One wristband, 15 venues, 50+ local artists. Spend your Saturday venue‑hopping through clubs like The Basement, Dee’s, Rudy’s Jazz Room, The 5 Spot, Cannery Hall, and more as Nashville’s indie, Americana, and alt scenes take over the city.

  • February 7, 2026 | See website for schedule | Multiple venues across Nashville

  • Last call for lanterns. Wander the zoo after dark under more than 1,000 glowing silk lanterns, from massive animals to dreamy landscapes, plus skating at the Smashville Ice Rink if you want to lean into winter.

  • Through February 8, 2026 | 5:00–9:00 PM | Nashville Zoo at Grassmere

  • Trade gray skies for a greenhouse moment. Cheekwood’s mansion is packed with layered orchid installations and tropical color — an easy daytime escape if you want something pretty, calm, and indoors.

  • February 7–March 8, 2026 | Daytime hours | Cheekwood Estate & Gardens

  • Have a high‑schooler who loves STEM? TWISTER is a daylong conference for girls in grades 9–12 with hands‑on sessions, a catered lunch, and face time with women working in science, tech, engineering, and research.

  • February 7, 2026 | 8:00 AM–3:00 PM | Adventure Science Center

  • Prom, but make it cosmic. East Nashville’s Basement East turns into an 80s‑tilted rock prom, complete with big band, big hair, and a crowd that’s very much there to dance.

  • February 7, 2026 | Doors 7:00 PM, Show 8:00 PM | The Basement East

  • If your ideal Saturday is pure pop nostalgia, Brooklyn Bowl is hosting a Bieber‑only dance party with videos on the big screen and an 18+ crowd singing every word.

  • February 7, 2026 | Doors 8:30 PM, Show 9:00 PM | Brooklyn Bowl Nashville

  • Duck into the Country Music Hall of Fame for an intimate set from Grammy winner Linda Davis, her husband Lang Scott, and their daughters Rylee Scott and Hillary Scott (of Lady A) — stories, harmonies, and a world‑class family band.

  • February 8, 2026 | 1:00–1:45 PM | Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum

Concerts you don’t want to miss 🎶

  • Country legend John Anderson brings an acoustic set to the Mother Church in a one‑night benefit for Vanderbilt Health’s music therapy and hearing programs — a rare chance to hear the hits stripped all the way back.

  • February 6, 2026 | 7:30 PM | Ryman Auditorium

  • If you want your Friday loud, Marathon Music Works has a stacked hard‑rock bill led by Nothing More, plus openers that keep the energy up from the first riff.

  • February 6, 2026 | Doors 5:30 PM, Show 6:30 PM | Marathon Music Works

  • Trade the arena for a room where you’re basically on top of the stage. Tyler Farr brings his gravelly country hooks to Elliston Place for a one‑night set at Exit/In.

  • February 6, 2026 | 8:00 PM | Exit/In

  • Third Man’s Blue Room hosts Night Moves for an indie‑rock night that leans dreamy and 70s‑tinged — ideal if you’d rather stand in a listening room than shout over a bar.

  • February 6, 2026 | Doors 7:00 PM, Show 8:00 PM | The Blue Room at Third Man Records

  • Soft‑rock anthems, harmonies for days, and an entire room singing along. Yacht Rock Revue brings the smooth 70s/80s hits to the Ryman for a full‑on nostalgia trip.

  • February 7, 2026 | 8:00 PM | Ryman Auditorium

  • Feel‑good country‑pop with a beach‑day edge. Niko Moon’s American Palm Tour hits The Pinnacle with an all‑ages show built for easy singalongs.

  • February 7, 2026 | 8:00 PM | The Pinnacle

  • February 8, 2026 | 7:30 PM | City Winery Nashville

  • For a quieter Sunday, head to The Parthenon for a string‑quartet program featuring Benjamin Chakoian Jones’s The Great Space with live dance, plus new works from Nashville‑connected composers.
