Nashville Nights Events is a boutique entertainment specialist dedicated to creating American Country & Western styled events for corporate conferences, staff parties and team building activities.
Unlike Bollywood, Hollywood, Vegas, Hawaii, Great Gatsby, Disco or other themed events on offer- Nashville Nights is a genuinely original offering and the first in the Australian marketplace to offer American Country & Western themed events.
Nashville Nights features its own live band- “The TailGators”- who set the atmosphere with iconic American Roadhouse & Country music mixed seamlessly with called barn dances, line dances, square dances and bush dances to create a night that is highly entertaining and extremely engaging.
The Nashville Nights themes are all variations on a core American Country and Western theme. The events we do are branded as: Wild West Nights; Boot Scootin’ Barndances; Hoedowns; Honkytonks; Cowboy & Cowgirl Rodeo Parties; Barndances; Country Fairs or Country Dances and the like.
The themes work because they are timeless, they are easy for people to dress up to, there are many matching catering options (such as spit roasts, sliders, BBQs and burgers), there are great add-ons (such as mechanical bulls and alley games), the music has a broad appeal, and in particular- the called dancing interwoven throughout the night creates a whole atmosphere of its own.
Nashville Nights was created in response to an increasing number of corporate clients wanting a country & western themed event for evening entertainment at conferences or staff parties. There is also a demand amongst clients for something that is new and truly original in the corporate entertainment marketplace. The team building aspects of the called dancing have also been highlighted as more and more corporates look for team building activities that are new, original and bring the whole team together in unison instead of into competing groups.
Nashville Nights work with our clients in a variety of ways. We are entirely flexible and are able to:
- Provide “The TailGators” and production sufficient for the band, with catering, theming, venue management etc. entirely in your hands; or
- Provide the band and work with your event manager or production team where we can provide advice in pre-production on theming, venue choice, engagement of additional suppliers, structure of the night etc.; or,
- Arrange the entire event for you including the band, full production, catering, venue management, theming, engagement of additional suppliers by partnering with one of our select event/ production companies.
