Depending on who you ask, you may hear that Nashville is either a drinking town or an eating town, and the reality is that both of those are true. The best place to see that mix up close and personal is the Nashville Bloody Mary Festival, which features over a dozen local restaurants giving out samples of their most creative, delicious Bloody Marys. This is usually one of the hottest tickets in town, so be sure to check it out before it’s too late!
The Bloody Mary Festival is gearing up for its third year running in Nashville at the Track One venue on 4th Avenue South in Chestnut Hill, and this event is one of the best kept secrets in town.
Last year, in only its second year running, there were 14 local restaurants showcasing their Bloody Marys, including Loveless Cafe, Party Fowl, and Chauhan Ale and Masala House. Proceeds from the event are always donated to a local charity.
Each restaurant brings their own unique flair to the drinks that they prepare, but you can be sure that there will be at least a few this year that feature Nashville hot chicken in one way or another.
But there's not just Bloody Marys at this beautiful event. Local shops like Tiff's Treats, Firepot Nomadic Teas, and Switters Iced Coffee will also be on hand showcasing their samples. There's usually a couple of food trucks as well, but be sure to check out the Facebook event below for the updated lineup.
There are two kinds of tickets available for the event. The General admission tickets are $47.50 and get you in to the event from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. The VIP tickets are $62.50 and get you in an hour earlier. Both tickets get you unlimited Bloody Marys, food and drink samples, and a vote for the People's Choice award for favorite Bloody Mary.
Be sure to get your tickets ASAP if you're interested. The organizers say that the event will sell out, and you don't want to miss out on all of these creative, delicious Bloody Marys! Will we see you there?
