Opened in March 2021, Fifth + Broadway has quickly become Nashville’s hotspot for fashion, food, and fun, and is home to the first and only National Museum of African American Music (NMAAM). Located across from the Ryman Auditorium and Bridgestone Arena, this 6.2-acre site, formerly the city’s Convention Center, features 200,000 square feet of restaurants and retail, from signature eateries and downtown diners to farm-to-table bistros, cafes, and lounges. The Rooftop Dining Terrace and Entertainment Deck offers sweeping views of Lower Broadway, the Ryman, and the Bridgestone Arena, holding up to 2,000 guests.
The National Museum of African American Music showcases the influence of African Americans on more than 50 genres, from classical, country, jazz, to hip-hop. Using interactive technology and storytelling, NMAAM highlights the untold history and cultural contributions of Black musicians, providing a unique and immersive music experience.
