Buckle Up, Buttercup: Your Guide to the Nashville Fair's Most INSANE (and Not-So-Insane) Rides
The Nashville Fair is rolling into town, y'all! Deep-fried Oreos, prize pigs, and enough glitter to blind a disco ball – it's a sensory overload in the best way possible. But let's face it, the real heart of the fair is the midway, that glorious land of flashing lights and screams (mostly happy screams, we hope).
So, you're wondering what kind of thrill-seeking adventures await? We've got you covered, from heart-stopping drops to rides that'll make your grandma woozy (in a good way, maybe).
Tip: Read in a quiet space for focus.
What Rides Are At The Nashville Fair |
Adrenaline Junkie Alley: Not for the Faint of Stomach
- The Fireball: This fiery orb will have you spinning like a rotisserie chicken on steroids. Just remember, upside-down corn dogs are a recipe for disaster.
- The Eagle Wheel: Soar above the crowds like a majestic...well, eagle. Unless you're scared of heights, in which case, it might feel more like a terrifying metal birdcage.
- The Zipper: Not for the claustrophobic or those prone to seasickness. This spinning, twirling nightmare (or dream, depending on your perspective) will leave you questioning your life choices...in the best way possible?
Family Fun Fiesta: For All Ages (and Nerves)
- The Grand Carousel: It wouldn't be a fair without a carousel! Hop on a majestic (plastic) steed and pretend you're royalty...even if your horse is named "Butterscotch."
- The Sugarland Express: A delightful little train ride that's perfect for the littles (and adults who secretly love a good choo-choo). Bonus points for pretending to shovel coal (it's fake, folks).
- The Dizzy Dragon: This whimsical dragon ride is more spin than thrill, but hey, it's a guaranteed giggle-fest (just don't eat funnel cake beforehand...trust us).
Don't Forget the Classics!
- The Bumper Cars: It's a rite of passage. Grind, bump, and pretend you're in a demolition derby with zero consequences (except maybe a bruised ego if you get repeatedly rammed).
- The Ferris Wheel: A Nashville Fair staple. Take in the breathtaking views (and maybe point out your house to impress your date...or scare them with the heights).
Important Note: This is not an exhaustive list. There are tons of other rides to explore, from the mysteriously named "1001 Nachts" to the vaguely terrifying "Zombie Containment."
Tip: Remember, the small details add value.
But wait, there's more! Check the fair's website for a complete rundown of rides, including height restrictions (sorry, shorties, the Fireball might have to wait).
