Happy World Cup Wednesday! I mean… Win Stuff Wednesday. I guess we can have our kicks and win them too, right? I’ve officially caught the bug, so I’ll be posted up somewhere for tonight’s match. If you’re still picking your spot, we’ve got a full list of watch parties to help you land the plane.

Before kickoff, take 30 seconds to enter today's giveaway. Nashville favorites Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies are celebrating 30 years of Magnolia at 3rd & Lindsley with a night of Southern rock, blues, and hometown nostalgia. We'd love to send you.*

RYMAN AUDITORIUM PRESENTS:

MONTHLY CALENDAR AT THE RYMAN

If you ever catch yourself trying to explain why the Ryman is so special, don't bother. Let the people who've played just about every legendary room on Earth do it for you.

Ed Sheeran’s review: "I genuinely, hands-on-heart, believe this is the best venue in the United States of America." Coldplay went one step further, calling it simply, "the greatest theatre in the world."

Lucky for us, you don't have to take their word for it, you can experience it yourself. Here's what's coming up at the legendary house of the universal language.*

Close your eyes and you'll swear it's 1965. The Fab Four brings every era of The Beatles to life at Schermerhorn Symphony Center with uncanny performances of the hits you know by heart. Your ticket to Beatlemania could be waiting.*

LOCALS ONLY

  •  The conversation around Nashville's proposed data centers isn't slowing down. A packed town hall this week brought neighbors, community leaders, and elected officials together to raise new concerns about the planned facility near Fisk University, and what it could mean for North Nashville's future. More details here. 

  • If your summer bucket list includes eating your way across Nashville, the Nashville Scene just made it easier. One app unlocks deals during Burger Week, Pizza Week, Hot Chicken Week, and Taco Week, plus you can help crown this year's local favorites. Give it a whirl why don’t ya?

WIN STUFF

🔥 TRENDING: 

If you happen to make it over to NMAAM today for First Wednesday, let me know what you think. It's one of those places that has been on my must-visit list for far too long, and the fact that it's free today makes it an even easier " heck yes."

Enjoy the match tonight, and here's hoping we're all celebrating by bedtime.

Cheers,

Jason
