So You Wanna See Some Shiny Trophies in Music City? A Guide to Nashville's (Non-Existent) Award Shows This Weekend
Howdy, award show enthusiasts and trophy-gawking tourists! Nashville might be the buckle of the Bible Belt, but this weekend, it's also the buckle of... well, disappointment, apparently. That's right, folks, there ain't a single red carpet in sight! But fear not, because we're here to turn award show FOMO into fantastic fun!
What Awards Are In Nashville This Weekend |
Buckle Up, Because We're Going Award-Less!
There isn't a single major award show throwing a glitzy gala in Nashville this weekend. Shocking, right? We know you came prepared to mingle with megastars and witness history in the making (or at least see Carrie Underwood trip spectacularly over a rogue microphone cord – that would be history, right?).
Don't fret, though! Nashville's got more entertainment than acceptance speeches.
Here's the upside: No overpriced peanuts, no endless commercials, and absolutely zero chance of getting stuck next to Uncle Fred who loudly explains plot twists during the entire show.
QuickTip: Short pauses improve understanding.
But Wait, There's More! (Fake News, That Is)
Let's get a little creative! Since there are no real awards to fawn over, why not invent our own? We'll call them the "Nash Bash Trophies".
Categories could include:
- Best Accidental Tourist Photobomb (think goofy grin in front of a bachelorette party)
- Most Questionable Outfit Spotted on Broadway (sequined hot pants and a cowboy hat, anyone?)
- Hot Chicken Hall of Fame (who can handle the most spice?)
See? Instant entertainment!
Tip: Highlight sentences that answer your questions.
Pro Tip: Grab a stack of index cards, write down your wacky categories, and have your friends vote throughout the weekend. Award ceremony can be held at your hotel room with a bucket of fried pickles as your trophy (because, Nashville).
Still Hankering for a Real Award Show Experience?
Fear not, my friend! Here's a taste of the past (because, again, no awards this weekend).
- Check out the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum: They've got actual awards galore, plus the stories behind the legends who won them.
- Catch a performance at the Grand Ole Opry: Witness history in the making (the good kind, with actual music and talent).
Bonus: There's always next year! The CMA Awards are usually held in November.
Tip: Reread if it feels confusing.
