PARTNER SPOTLIGHT
Sound familiar?
Over 4 million people have had the same lightbulb moment.
Morning Brew is a free daily newsletter that breaks down what's happening in business, finance, and tech โ clearly, quickly, and with enough personality to make it the best email in your inbox.
No yelling. No filler. Just the news, finally making sense.
Gulch Summer Market - CANCELLED
THURSDAY
Heads up: the Gulch Summer Market originally set for Thursday, June 18 at Noble Park (3โ6 PM) has been cancelled due to weather, per an update from @gulchevents. The lineup had been stacked, live music from Zoe Annette, free hot dogs from Daddy's Dogs for the first 100 guests, and a shot at $500 in local gift cards from vendors like Two Spicy Mamas and Perpetual Pottery.
Mother Nature apparently didn't get the "Shop Local" memo!
Thursday Night Out
THURSDAY
Cheekwood's weekly summer concert series returns to the Arboretum Lawn every Thursday through August 27, with tonight's show (June 18, 5โ9 PM) bringing Brooklyn's The Fundamental Sound plus food trucks, Perenn at Cheekwood, and seasonal cocktails. Tickets start at $21.
Bring a blanket and leave the FOMO at home!
Nashville Predators Craft Beer Festival 2026
SATURDAY
Bridgestone Arena swaps pucks for pints this Saturday, June 20, from 3โ7 PM, with the Predators Craft Beer Festival pouring from local favorites like Fat Bottom, Cedar Glade Brews, and Diskin Cider. Every ticket (starting at $75) comes bundled with a free Preds game ticket for next season, with proceeds going to the Preds Foundation.
It's the one night downtown where saying "I'm hydrating" actually means beer!
Summer Solstice Night Market
SATURDAY
East Nashville's Southern Grist Brewing Co hosts its Summer Solstice Night Market this Saturday, June 20, from 6โ9 PM, packing the patio with witchy vendors, good food, and cold beer.
It's free and casual, no tickets, just a reason to be outside!
Ed Sheeran at Nissan Stadium
SATURDAY
Ed Sheeran brings his Loop Tour to Nissan Stadium this Saturday, June 20, with Myles Smith, Amble, and Aaron Rowe opening, gates at 4 PM, and the show kicking off at 5:30. He's leaning into his new album Play alongside the hits, with an all-new set design built for the stop.
Just know "Shape of You" won't save you from the downtown gridlock, that's on Sheeran and the Beer Fest crowd both!
