The Fairgrounds Nashville

The Fairgrounds Nashville offers more than 132,000 square feet of indoor space across modern Expo buildings, complemented by available outdoor space. This venue serves as a location for various collector and hobby shows. The site holds significant historical value, predating both the city of Nashville and the state of Tennessee. It is the largest remaining portion of a 640-acre tract once owned by Revolutionary War veteran Captain John Rains, and its Cumberland Park racetrack previously established the area as a national center for horse and auto racing.
