Charter Bus to Lower Broadway Honky Tonks

Lower Broadway between 1st and 5th Avenues is Nashville's tourist spine — honky-tonks stacked three deep with bands playing from noon until 3am, all free entry (tip the band). Tootsie's purple facade, Robert's Western World's boots-and-beer, and Legends' vinyl walls are the anchors; the party buses that loop the strip are the thing to avoid, not join, when your own group has a real coach.

Broadway, Nashville, TN 37203 The Nashville signature — live-music bar crawl, bachelorette groups and night drop-offs.

Know before you go

Tootsie's Orchid Lounge — three floors of stages where Willie and Patsy once played.
Robert's Western World is the traditionalists' pick: fried bologna, $6 PBR and real country.
The Acme Feed & Seed rooftop gives the Broadway panorama with the Cumberland behind.

Tips for group trips

Broadway closes to traffic on event nights — coach drop on 2nd Ave or the riverfront side.
Daytime honky-tonks are all-ages friendly; after ~8pm most go 21+.
The music starts at noon — a 1pm–4pm crawl catches great bands with half the crowd.
