Not for nothing is Nashville, Tennessee known as Music City.

And the tunes start right at Nashville International Airport (BNA). There, live performances featuring all manner of musical styles, from traditional and contemporary country to rhythm and blues, jazz, pop, gospel, and bluegrass are presented on stages located near the A/B Waiting Lounge, the C/D Waiting Lounge, and in the Concourse C Food Court (beyond security).

If you’re headed that way, check out the BNA events calendar filled with live performances. And be sure to take a moment to listen up when you land.
