Broadway Bar Crawl with Nashville Pedal Tavern
If Vegas is on your general bucket list then you’re hitting it pretty close with a Pedal Tavern tour through “Nashvegas”. A pedal tavern tour with Nashville Pedal Tavern will make a group of “woo-girls” literally best friends by the end of the night and will have guys inviting you to join their bachelor party. On top of it all – you’ll be working off all the calories from the drink specials while pedaling around Lower Broad.
If you’re looking to get off Broadway and out of the honky tonks for awhile, head to Midtown on the pedal tavern. Known as the more local side of Nashville, you’ll still numerous honky tonks, bands and drink specials to enjoy.
Goat Yoga
For those who haven’t tried Goat Yoga in Nashville yet, maybe you have your reasons but if those reasons aren’t very solid then we’d say this is a must in the new year! This bucket list item covers all of the new year’s resolutions of more exercise, making new friends (human and cute animals alike), and self-care. You’ll be laughing your way through this yoga session and feeling like a whole new you after!
CMA Fest
You cannot live in Nashville or visit the city without attending CMA fest at one point in your life. It just isn’t right. But if you’re in the group of those yet to attend, this is your year! It’s a week filled with concerts and free shows! All of Lower Broadway is blocked off to walk the streets and dance your heart out to your favorite artist all day and all night. [We’re just going to slide in here and say that a Nashville Pedal Tavern tour is an awesome addition to any CMA fest itinerary you plan.] This Nashville bucket list item will get you out and about, making new friends and letting your hair down for a hot second. Life’s all about balance right? So balance that work grind with something fun that you’ll be looking forward to and reminiscing about long after.
River Queen Voyages
River Queen Voyages speaks the Nashville Pedal Tavern language- dedicated to providing truly amazing experiences in Nashville. You’ll get some exercise and vitamin D while meeting fellow paddlers on the Cumberland River. We recommend grabbing the cooler for a little pregaming and then paddle your way from Shelby Park down to Lower Broadway Nashville. A great thing to do before you hit the streets of Nashville! (That’s if you’re able to stay dry!)
