Give the Gift of Experiences

I’m all about gifting experiences for people to enjoy, rather than filling their homes with more stuff! Here are some of the best Nashville experiences to gift this year!

*For the Kids

Membership to The Nashville Zoo provides year round enjoyment of animals and special events at Grassmere.
Urban Air is one of my kids’ favorite places! They love the zip line, trampolines and attractions. A membership would be such a fun gift!

The Rabbit Hole VR is Tennessee’s premiere virtual reality provider with arcades in Nashville and Cool Springs. Give the gift of a game! They also have VR-On-The-Go rentals!

*For the Music Lover

Treat your friends or family to a show at The Ryman or Grand Ole Opry
This year, give the music lovers in your life a present that delivers into the future: membership at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. Along with unlimited admission to galleries, Museum memberships include a slew of year-round perks, including discounts in retail shops and restaurants and invites to members-only events. Through December 31, you can save on the gift of membership too—we’re taking 10% off the annual price of individual and family level memberships.
Tickets to a future classical performance or one of many concerts at The Nashville Symphony The Symphony has been hit very hard this year and had to shut down. Consider giving a gift in someone’s honor or purchase for a future experience.
