If you love Country Music, there's only one place in the world to be June 9–13, 2021:

NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE

July 15, 2020: Drum roll, please! We'll be releasing our 2021 CMA Music Festival hotel/ticket packages, including options for Gold Circle seating, next week on July 20.

 

April 8, 2020: Last week the CMA announced that the 2020 Festival would not be held this June due to the Covid-19 pandemic. We know many of you have been planning your trip to Nashville for a year or more and are keenly disappointed (even to the point of tears) that the event has been cancelled. Over the years we're had clients who have been forced to postpone their trip to Nashville because of joyous life events like weddings or births; we've also had clients who have been forced to cancel because of much sadder circumstances —a major illness or a death in the family or a job loss. In all these cases, we try to offer a note of consolation: if you miss it this time around, there's always next year.

 

The annual renewal offered by the CMA Festival has helped a lot of people. And now, it's the Festival's turn to look to us to keep the continuity going. The big event is having to take a year off because of circumstances beyond anyone's control. But it will be back. It will be back because of all of us who love Nashville and love Country Music. There's always next year and next year in this case is 2021. It will be here before we know it. So please keep your spirits up, stay safe and well, and know that Nashville ain't going anywhere. We'll be here waiting for you whenever you can come again. And we'll welcome you warmly.

For our 2020 BlueShoe clients: we sent out emails last week regarding your hotel/ticket packages and your options for proceeding to transfer to the 2021 Festival or to request a refund. If you did not receive two separate emails from BlueShoe Nashville, please let us know and we'll resend them.

For those interested in booking packages for 2021, we anticipate posting our new hotel/tickets packages next month (May 2020). You'll have a wonderful choice of seats (including Gold Circle) and a range of premium hotels, including the 5-Star Hermitage Hotel in downtown Nashville. So please check back or if you would like to be put on our mailing list, fill out the contact form below.

 

March 11, 2020: Update from the Country Music Association regarding the CMA Music Festival and the coronavirus threat:

About BlueShoe & Nashville

The CMA Music Festival is dangerously addictive: you come once and you'll want to come again and again. The music is, of course, great and you get a lot of it—during the day and night and way into the wee hours of the morning. But what many people say who come to Nashville for the first time is how surprised they are by city itself—by the beauty of this town on the Cumberland River. The charming century-old red brick buildings on Lower Broad, the vibrancy of a culture that celebrates not only music, but also the visual arts and theatre, and the friendliness of its residents combine to make Nashville a city of unexpected delights. Here at BlueShoe we want to highlight why so many travelers are passionate about coming to Music City—and to help you make the most of your own visit here.

Established in 1998, BlueShoe Nashville is a cultural and historical travel guide to Nashville, Tennessee. It takes it name from the song by the Tennessean Carl Perkins, "Blue Suede Shoes." Both Perkins and a guy named Elvis made it a huge hit. It's that sort of song. Many years later, Marc Cohn cut a hauntingly beautiful song called "Walking in Memphis" that begins with a homage to those blue suede shoes.

When we were looking for a title for a different sort of travel guide (one with a focus on the musical heritage of Tennessee), Perkins' and Presley's renditions came to mind. A BlueShoe Traveler does the town in style, with imagination, curiosity, and discernment--making the discoveries that can turn even the most humdrum business excursion into a journey of revelation and delight.

BlueShoe Nashville specializes in premium hotel/ticket travel packages for the CMA Music Festival and the CMA Awards Show.
