  • Headline: Music, Family Fun, and Small Biz Opportunities Abound in Nashville This Week
    Jan 25 2026
    Welcome to your Nashville events guide for this week. Whether you're a music lover, family adventurer, or culture seeker, Music City has something spectacular lined up for you.

    This Sunday, you've got some fantastic options happening right now. If you're looking for a live music experience, head over to Ole Red Nashville where Tanner Fussell is performing at eleven in the morning. For families seeking enchantment, the Nashville Zoo's Zoolumination Festival of Lights is open until nine tonight, showcasing over a thousand dazzling custom silk lanterns and towering illuminated creatures. According to the Nashville Zoo, this is the country's largest Chinese lantern festival, and they've added a brand new ice rink this year along with nightly live performances and Santa's Village for seasonal fun.

    If you missed the Frozen in Concert performance with the Nashville Symphony yesterday, don't worry because there's still time to catch other incredible shows this week.

    Looking ahead to the rest of the week, we've got some exciting developments. The National Small Business Conference is happening January twenty-sixth through twenty-eighth at the Gaylord Opryland Resort, bringing together federal agencies, business leaders, and industry experts with matchmaking opportunities and networking events.

    Now here's an important note for live music fans. The Encore Tour featuring the cast of the hit television series Nashville, including Clare Bowen, Charles Esten, Jonathan Jackson, and Sam Palladio, was originally scheduled for today at Ryman Auditorium but has been rescheduled to Tuesday, January twenty-seventh at seven-thirty in the evening due to anticipated severe weather. All original tickets will be honored for the new date. The Ryman, built in eighteen ninety-two, is one of the most revered stages in modern music history, so this is definitely worth adding to your calendar.

    The Zoolumination Festival continues throughout the week and weekend, running through February eighth, so if you can't make it today, you've got plenty of other opportunities to experience this magical event with your family and friends.

  • Chilly January Weekend in Music City: Opry, Ryman, and Symphony Offerings Heat Up
    Jan 24 2026
    Hey Nashville listeners, welcome to your go-to guide for what's shaking in Music City this weekend and into next week. It's a chilly January Saturday on the 24th, but the heat's on with killer live shows to warm you up. Kick things off tonight at the legendary Grand Ole Opry House with Ashley McBryde, Bill Anderson, John Conlee, and rising star Dasha taking the stage at 7 PM, according to the Nashville Events calendar. That's classic country magic blending timeless hits and fresh vibes—grab tickets fast for this Saturday night staple.

    Over at the Ryman Auditorium, the Mother Church of Country Music is buzzing too. They're hosting Hannah Berner for comedy laughs and Sheng Wang delivering stand-up gold, both perfect for shaking off the winter blues. Plus, keep an eye on Mavis Staples with MJ Lenderman rescheduled—soul queen Mavis never disappoints with her powerhouse voice. The Ryman site lists these as hot tickets, so upgrade to the Ford Lounge for that VIP twist.

    Symphony fans, don't sleep on the Nashville Symphony's Frozen in Concert today and tomorrow at Schermerhorn Symphony Center, as Nashville Guru reports. Disney magic meets live orchestra—ideal for families or anyone craving that "Let It Go" rush amid a potential snow day.

    Swing into Sunday the 25th with more Frozen encore action, then gear up for midweek. Monday through Wednesday stay cozy with Opry at the Ryman residencies, and by Thursday the 29th, catch Back Upfront at a spot near downtown per Nashville Guru's event lineup. TPAC's got drama brewing too, though today's Les Misérables matinee got canceled—check their site for reschedules.

    Smaller scenes? Ray Stephenson's rocking 3rd and Lindsley at 6 PM tonight, Ticketmaster says, while Brooklyn Bowl's closed for weather—stay safe out there. Weather might sprinkle some snow, so bundle up for honky-tonk hopping on Lower Broadway afterward.

    Listeners, whether you're chasing country legends, comedy roasts, or symphonic sing-alongs, Nashville's delivering this week. Dive in, make memories, and let Music City work its charm.

    Jan 22 2026
    Hey Nashville listeners, buckle up for an electrifying week in Music City starting today, Thursday, because the beat is dropping hard from now through the weekend. Kick things off right here at 6:30 PM with the Vanderbilt Commodores Women's Basketball team taking on the Auburn Tigers at Memorial Gymnasium, according to the Nashville Events calendar, perfect for some high-energy hoops action and school spirit.

    Over at the iconic Ryman Auditorium tonight at 7:30 PM, country heartthrob Brett Young is hitting the stage with opener Jenna Davis, promising those smooth vocals and romantic anthems that make fans swoon, as listed on the Ryman site. If you're craving intimate songwriter vibes, head to Ole Red Nashville at 11:00 AM for Jessica Rose's lively set, or catch the Torrez Music Group "In The Round" at 6:00 PM at the legendary Bluebird Cafe featuring Gabe Lee, Sophie Gault, Zach Meadows, and Natalie Del Carmen, straight from Bluebird's schedule, where rising stars share raw tales through song.

    Swing into Friday with non-stop action at The Basement East, hosting a packed show that keeps the indie rock pulse racing, per their calendar. Saturday heats up there too, with more live tunes drawing crowds for that gritty Nashville sound. Don't sleep on the Bluebird either, with multiple "In The Round" sessions on tap through the weekend, like the benefit show with Dylan Altman, Marshall Altman, Brice Long, and Gabe Dixon supporting Alive Hospice on one of those nights.

    As the week rolls on, Wednesday's Bonnie Stewart and Friends at The Basement East on the 28th brings Maddie Lenhart, Carson Beyer, Mark Taylor, and more for a feel-good jam session. Keep an eye out for Winter Jam buzz building, with Anne Wilson, Matthew West, Katy Nichole, Hulvey, and Disciple on the horizon at Bridgestone Arena, as WAYFM reports, blending faith, fun, and powerhouse performances.

    Whether you're chasing basketball thrills, crooning country at the Ryman, or songwriter magic at the Bluebird, Nashville's serving up pure gold this week. Grab those tickets fast, dress comfy for the venues, and let the music move you.
