“The wait is over,” the official Instagram page for the bar wrote, “@FriendsBarNash will host its GRAND OPENING on March 7!! We can’t wait to open in the neon neighborhood!!!! Thank you MUSIC CITY!!!!”
This official grand opening event follows a soft opening on Black Friday last year, which offered a sneak peek into the bar’s first floor and a “dive bar” performance by Garth himself. The venue, named after his timeless 1990’s hit song “Friends in Low Places,” will capture the heart of Nashville’s friendly spirit and its love for country music tradition.
What Visitors Can Expect
Covering an impressive 54,715 square feet across four floors, the grand opening will unveil the complete space, including the rooftop areas. Additionally, Brooks has made safety a top priority by incorporating a police substation attached to the venue in collaboration with the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department.
