Here's what we have planned for you in Music City USA!
Monday June 18, 2018
6:00 to 9:30 pm
Westin L28 Rooftop Bar
Plan to arrive Monday so you can meet and greet fellow NAPBA members at the Welcome reception. This is such a great way to kick off our conference and familiarize yourself with Nashville with spectacular city views from the Westin’s newly renovated 28th floor rooftop bar. We’re so excited to have such a special venue for our first NAPBA event in Nashville!
Come hungry – plenty of food and adult beverages in true NAPBA tradition.
Tuesday June 19, 2018
5:30 – 6:30 George Jones Museum
On your way to dinner, stop by the George Jones Museum where NAPBA members can take a self-guided tour in the museum, which is just small enough to manage in less than an hour, but chock full of country music history and memorabilia. NAPBA members can even partake in a moonshine tasting if you dare; but partake responsibly, as we have a full evening and open bar in store just a few step down the street at Famous.
6:30 – 9:30 Famous Saloon
Our first offsite dinner event will be at Famous Saloon in the heart of The District, where we will have the entire Green Room to ourselves for a cocktail reception and dinner accompanied by live music projected from the first-floor stage. The Green Room is a gorgeous space with views of the city and the Cumberland River. We will have ample time and space to socialize and enjoy Nashville flavors at one of the most "famous" spots in the city, “Where Nashville Plays”.
Wednesday June 20, 2018
6:00 – 10:00pm
Great views, great food, and a side of music. That is what Sambuca Restaurant is known for, and is a must-do recommendation by everyone who knows Nashville. Our “Signature Event” dinner and reception will be held in the sky loft, which offers a quiet dining space behind a glass wall as well as loft views of the live music stage below for partying before and after dinner.
