Last Minute Summer Vacation Ideas in Nashville

Sadly, summer will soon be drawing to a close as children go back to school, so why not take advantage of the hot summer temperatures and summer activities found in Nashville, TN? From special summer events to days spent in the sun, Nashville has plenty to offer in these waning summer days.

Gaylord Opryland is a one stop Nashville destination. You could never leave the property and still have one of the most fun vacations of your life! Gaylord Opryland’s Summerfest is currently going on until August 16. During Summerfest, the Gaylord Opryland hosts special events and entertainment nightly. For this year, events include Delta Island Country Street Parties, with live DJs and line dancing, nightly Fountain Shows accompanied by music and dancing, Delta Boat Cruises, and Breakfast with the Legends.

In addition to all of the fun activities of Summerfest, Gaylord Opryland has enough activities to keep you busy during your visit. On-site amenities include outdoor pools, a fully-equipped fitness center, and the Relache Spa. The Gaylord Opryland can also take care of all of your dining needs with their on-site restaurants, which include the Ristorante Volare and the Old Hickory Steakhouse. For nightlife options, you can find Fuse, the nightclub seen in Dierk Bentley’s hit music video for his song “Sideways,” Jack Daniel’s Saloon, and Findley’s Irish Pub.

For more delicious food, visit the Gaylord Opryland during the upcoming Southern Food and Wine Festival presented by the Food Network. This event takes place July 31-August 2 and features Food Network chefs Alton Brown, the Deen Brothers, and the Neelys. This event includes live demonstrations, exhibits, and meet and greet receptions. Of course, the rooms at the Gaylord offer some of the most comfortable accommodations in Nashville, along with the convenience of being close to all the attractions of the Gaylord and Nashville.

Another activity that will help you enjoy the sunny summer Tennessee days is the Canopy Challenge Course. This unique ropes course features challenging activities like climbing walls, giant swings, and obstacle courses. This activity is great for family bonding or team building as it gives participants the opportunity to test their strength and help each other, all while enjoying a great experience in the Tennessee outdoors.
