Unlike other locations, Nashville is just as fun to visit in winter as in other seasons.

Are you debating whether to take a vacation to Nashville in the winter? The team at UrbanNashville is here to help you make up your mind; we’ve compiled a list of five reasons why Nashville is a great destination to visit in the winter. Continue reading to decide for yourself.

1. Comfortable Weather

Nashville temperatures take a dip in the winter months, but they are still comfortable for all sorts of activities. Even during the coldest months, high temperatures range from the high 40s to the low-50s. Sure, it isn’t a tropical setting, but the weather is comfortable to walk around in with a jacket, and it shouldn’t dissuade you from all of the fun that awaits your visit.

2. Smaller Crowds

Over the years, Nashville has become a hotspot for tourism, but in the wintertime, the crowds dwindle. If you hate large crowds, winter is the perfect time to visit, as things are just a little bit quieter. There’s still plenty to do, but fewer people are waiting to enjoy it, allowing you to make the most of every moment of your winter vacation to Nashville.

3. The Music Never Stops

They don’t call Nashville the Music City for nothing, this town’s musical culture is in full effect all year long. Even in winter, there is never a shortage of musical entertainment in Nashville. Head to the famed Grand Ole Opry or stop into one of the city’s many honkytonks and prepare to have your ears blessed with the songs of talented bands and musicians. 

4. Exciting Holiday Events

As the temperatures cool and the holiday season approaches, Nashville transforms into a festive winter wonderland. Walking around town, you will be able to take in countless dazzling displays of holiday lights. Besides that, Nashville hosts tons of holiday events, from Santa visits to holiday concerts and more. Nashville is the perfect place to get jolly with a festive holiday experience.

4 of Nashville’s Best Breweries

Each of Nashville’s breweries has its own distinct style and vibe; no two taprooms here are the same. Whether you like easy sippers or hoppy brews, there’s no doubt Nashville’s best breweries have something you’ll enjoy.

Tennessee Brew Works

Since 2013, Tennessee Brew Works has provided Tennesseans with a wide range of craft beers. While they specialize in European styles, they also offer IPAs, American ales, and more. Plus, for the non-beer drinkers, there is wine, cider, and cocktails available, as well as food. Tennessee Brew Works features live music from local artists on a nearly nightly basis, providing a lively soundtrack perfect for an evening of drinking and good times.

Southern Grist Brewing

With two taprooms, you have a couple of options for visiting Southern Grist Brewing. This is the go-to spot for bold flavors and unique brews. For example, you can find beers inspired by mimosas, cheesecake, and more on their constantly rotating tap list. Both taprooms have a great, friendly atmosphere, perfect for socializing. If you’re interested in a unique dining experience, head to Lauter, their food concept in East Nashville.

Yazoo Brewing Company

One of the original Nashville breweries, Yazoo Brewing Company first started in 2003. Today, Yazoo is located in Madison, right outside Nashville. However, it is worth the short trip from the city to check out their great taproom and award-winning beer. They have seating indoors and outdoors, allowing you to take advantage of the nice weather in the warmer months. Want to see how they brew their beer? They also offer brewery tours. 

Living Waters Brewing

Another East Nashville favorite, Living Waters Brewing is a unique concept, offering beer and coffee. Yep, you read that right, coffee; you probably didn’t expect a brewery to be serving up delicious coffee, but their coffee bar is not to be missed. Whether you come for a beer or a cup of joe, Living Waters Brewing’s warm and welcoming atmosphere ensures you’re in for a pleasant experience.
