Meetings by Neighborhood

Once an industrial rail yard, The Gulch has transformed into one of Nashville's most polished neighborhoods. It is a place where luxury hotels, rooftop bars, and contemporary restaurants sit alongside some of the city's busiest sidewalks (and most popular murals).

The neighborhood serves as a natural extension of downtown, but with a more curated feel. During the day, attendees can browse shops such as Gibson Garage, Paddywax, and Carter Vintage Guitar, while evenings often center on cocktails, restaurants, and skyline views.

When it comes to dining, The Gulch reflects Nashville's increasingly diverse culinary scene. Groups can settle in at The Catbird Seat, St. Vito Focacceria, Peg Leg Porker, Craig’s, or Maiz de la Vida, where everything from award-winning BBQ to globally inspired menus showcases the neighborhood's contemporary character.

For an evening above the city, rooftops such as L.A. Jackson and Butterfly offer sweeping views, perfect for private events or cocktail hours, while nearby venues, including The Station Inn, Rudy's Jazz Room, and Cannery Hall, serve as reminders that Nashville's musical heritage extends far beyond Broadway.

Brick sidewalks, restored Victorian buildings, and some of Nashville's most acclaimed restaurants have made Germantown a favorite neighborhood.

Located just north of downtown, the area balances history and growth in a way few neighborhoods can. Spend an afternoon exploring the Nashville Farmers' Market, host an event at the Tennessee State Museum, or impress attendees with a happy hour at neighborhood favorites like Mother's Ruin or Close Company.

Food has become central to Germantown's identity. Restaurants such as Henrietta Red, Pelato, Rolf & Daughters, 5th & Taylor, and Geist have helped establish the neighborhood as one of the city's premier dining destinations, attracting locals and visitors alike.

The emerging Neuhoff District in Germantown is adding a new dimension to the neighborhood’s appeal, blending the historic industrial architecture of the former meatpacking district with thoughtful modern design along the Cumberland River. Visitors can gather for a drink at Le Loup or Monday Night Brewing, grab a bite at BabyChan, play a round at Sensa Padel, or catch a live performance at Star Rover Sound.

Wedgewood-Houston has become one of Nashville's creative epicenters.

Former warehouses and industrial buildings now house galleries, design studios, restaurants, event spaces, and a growing number of music industry headquarters and publishing companies, creating a neighborhood where art, music, and hospitality intersect.

Destinations like David Lusk Gallery, SAVAS, Julia Martin Gallery, Hermès, and The Truth line the streets, giving the neighborhood its distinct identity, while Nashville's music industry adds another layer to WeHo's creative energy.

Like the galleries and studios that surround them, WeHo's restaurants are helping redefine Nashville's creative identity. Diners can explore destinations such as One MICHELIN Star restaurant Bastion, Sally’s Stay Awhile, Ingrassia & Sons Deli, and Alla Vita, where chefs continue to push Nashville's culinary conversation forward.

The area's regular art crawls, growing collection of creative businesses, and venues like Soho House Nashville make the area feel less like a traditional entertainment district and more like a neighborhood where creativity drives what's next.

Across the Cumberland River, East Nashville offers a side of the city shaped by locally owned businesses, neighborhood gathering places, and a distinctive character.

The neighborhood's appeal lies in its independent spirit. Coffee shops, boutiques, music venues, and restaurants occupy nearly every corner, creating a sense of discovery that rewards wandering.

The dining scene reflects that same individuality. Restaurants including Lockland Table, Folk, Junior, and Butcher & Bee have helped establish East Nashville as one of the city's most exciting culinary neighborhoods, while longstanding local favorites continue to draw loyal crowds.

Between stops, visitors can browse vintage shops, sample Nashville-made chocolate at Olive & Sinclair, or catch a show at The Basement East. Places like Urban Cowboy Public House, Lost & Found, The Wash, and Skinny Dennis provide plenty of opportunities for groups to gather for private events of all sizes.

If Nashville has a quintessential neighborhood stroll, it might be found in 12South.

Tree-lined streets, historic homes, and locally owned businesses give the neighborhood a relaxed pace that feels worlds away from downtown despite being only a short drive away. It's the kind of place where visitors linger over coffee, browse boutiques, and spend an afternoon without much of an agenda.

Restaurants such as Urban Grub, The Butter Milk Ranch, Frothy Monkey, and Locust contribute to the neighborhood's appeal, offering everything from nationally acclaimed dining experiences to neighborhood favorites.

Between meals, visitors can browse White's Mercantile, discover local makers at Imogene + Willie, or stop by Ranger Station. Together, these businesses help define the version of Nashville that many visitors don't discover until they leave downtown.
