Money-Saving Tips for Nashville
- Lower Broadway bars have free live music all day and night — you pay via drink minimums, not a cover
- Try Nashville hot chicken at Prince's (the original) or Hattie B's — order one level milder than you think
- The Johnny Cash Museum and Country Music Hall of Fame are within walking distance downtown
- Rideshares are essential at night — parking and driving downtown on weekends is chaotic
- Visit during shoulder season (April to June, September to October) for the best balance of weather and prices
