Big Band Dances

Big Band Dances take place every Saturday in summer through August 15, rotating between the Centennial Park Parthenon Ellipse (2500 West End Ave., Nashville) and the Centennial Arts Center (301 25th Ave. N, Nashville). A live big band provides the music while you learn a different dance style. Food trucks are on site, or you can bring a cooler. If you’re new to the swing-era dance steps, there’s always a free lesson for everyone at 7 p.m. The evening’s big band takes over at 7:30 p.m. Follow Cen
