Nashville is preparing to get lit this holiday season. GLOW, Nashville’s brightest Christmas experience, will take over First Tennessee Park, home of the Nashville Sounds, for an immersive thirty six nights of unparalleled holiday magic and unforgettable photo-worthy moments.
The festive holiday event is happening now through December 31st. “We are packing millions of holiday lights into this beautiful ballpark, just minutes away from downtown Nashville,” said Chris Stacey, Founder and CEO of GLOW and award-winning festival producer. “The sheer size and scale of our custom light sculptures has never been seen before in the region, and - with one of the country’s tallest Christmas trees and many other interactive activities like ice skating and tubing - GLOW is poised to become one of the Southeast’s top holiday attractions.”
"GLOW is a holiday event unlike anything Nashville has experienced before,” said Adam Nuse, General Manager and Chief Operating Officer of the Nashville Sounds. “We have always wanted to activate First Tennessee Park during the holiday season, and GLOW is beyond anything we could have imagined. We look forward to being part of a new holiday tradition that is perfect for families, couples or a night out with friends.”
“Our city has come into its own as a holiday destination in recent years, and we are delighted to have an exciting new option for locals and visitors alike so close to the downtown core,” said Butch Spyridon, Nashville Convention & Visitors Corporation CEO. “With GLOW operating through New Year’s Eve, it will be a great addition for Music City Bowl visitors and those attending our New Year's Eve Bash.”
