If youâre coming to CMA Fest and looking for a place to stay next year - save this video as your reminder (or just book your stay now)!
I got to check out the CMA Fest Kickoff Party at the Hilton Downtown Nashville, and it was honestly the perfect way to ease into the chaos of the week.
The vibe was super relaxed, the terrace views overlooking the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum and Bridgestone Arena were incredible, the snacks were delicious, and yes⌠the open bar definitely didnât hurtđš
One of my favorite touches was the goodie bag they sent us home with, packed with so many of the things youâll inevitably need during CMA Fest. The best part? Guests who pre-book their stay get all of that included.
Not gonna lie, after seeing how close it is to everything, I might seriously stay here next year. The idea of maximizing sleep instead of fighting traffic and parking every morning sounds pretty amazing right about now đ
Such a hidden gem in the heart of downtown Nashville.
Who else is having serious whiplash and mixed emotions that CMA Fest is over?! đ
