Crazy Town
Crazy Town is a three-story entertainment district in the heart of downtown Nashville. It features six bars, three live music stages, and wonderful views of the historic Broadway street.

It is also a common hangout place for successful country musicians and songwriters. You can catch snippets of 5 Points in the “Nashville” TV show in season five as Clayton Carter, a street musician, often plays here.
Bluebird Cafe
Bluebird Cafe is recognized around the world as a venue that hosts songwriters’ top hits. It is an intimate venue with only 90 seats, but has hosted some of the best country musicians and songwriters in the industry. The Bluebird is considered an experience, rather than a show. The listening room has an open mic environment with a “shh” policy. Guests are expected to keep communication to a minimum and to immerse themselves in the listening experience.
The Bluebird Cafe is a crucial destination in the “Nashville” TV show. You can view the cafe multiple times throughout “Nashville” seasons as most of the stars perform here at least once. This is also where the main character, Gunnar, pushes Scarlett to pursue her music.

It honors the country music history and current country icons every day. It often is known as country’s most famous stage.
