PARTNER SPOTLIGHT

Is this the cutest heating pad ever?

Meet the Menstruation Crustacean—the microwaveable, ultra-soothing lobster heating pad that brings major comfort and a little comic relief. Just pop this plush crustacean in the microwave and let its warm weight melt away period cramps, backaches, or any random aches life throws at you. Plus, it features a soothing lavender scent to boost your mood when it’s that time of the month. This little guy is hilarious and functional – the perfect Secret Santa gift or stocking stuffer for this holiday season! Check out the rest of the Menstruation Crustacean gang, too.

Comedy Shows

THURSDAY, FRIDAY, & SATURDAY

Trey Kennedy is playing the Pinnacle tonight, while Nate Bargatze is playing Bridgestone Arena on Friday and Saturday. Nate is one of the biggest things in comedy and is coming home for a few shows.

You can even pick up a Nate Bargatze bobblehead tonight at the Predators game!

Skydeck Christmas Market

DECEMBER 11 - 21

The Skydeck Christmas Market will take place from Thursday to Sunday within this date range at the Skydeck on Broadway. There will be festive activities, local vendors, and entertainment for everyone.

On Saturdays, Santa will even be there!

Nashville Scene’s Taco Week

DECEMBER 8 - 14

Nashville Scene puts on some of the best food weeks, featuring some favorites in the Nashville restaurant scene. There will be 40+ restaurants offering $6 taco specials.

Based on the pictures, I want to try Common Ground’s special.

Dickens of a Christmas in Franklin

SATURDAY & SUNDAY

This free festival in Downtown Franklin is worth the trip. There will be live entertainment, arts and crafts, a beer garden, and many fun activities.

Plus, you can get some Christmas shopping done while roaming around!

Nashville Santa Rampage

SATURDAY

Nashville Santa Rampage is a giant bar crawl where everyone dresses like Santa. You will meet at the tree on 2nd Avenue at 8 pm. From there, the party is on.

It is free, so make sure you don’t buy tickets anywhere!
