March 10, 2019 | Men's Basketball
SEC FanFare Moving To Music City Walk Of Fame Park
Sunkist Soda SEC FanFare, the official fan event for the SEC Men's Basketball Tournament in Nashville, has a new home. The free event is located in the heart of downtown Nashville, in a new location, right across the street in Music City Walk of Fame Park just steps from Bridgestone Arena. The event is a full interactive experience featuring food, drinks, interactives, live entertainment and much more! The event is free to the public.
Â
SEC FanFare is open Thursday and Friday 10 a.m. through 7 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. See you there!
Â
The Opry Salutes The SEC
This special Opry show will feature free music, a fashion show and SEC action in the Opry Plaza as well as a ticketed hoops-themed evening Opry performance. Among those already scheduled for the night's Opry show are Opry NextStage artist Riley Green, Maddie & Tae, Eddie Montgomery of Montgomery Gentry, Craig Morgan, Country Music Hall of Famer Ricky Skaggs, and more!
Â
The Grand Ole Opry is the show that made country music famous. The Opry features a dynamic line-up of new stars, superstars, and legends of country music. Unlike a typical concert, the Opry presents eight or more artists on each show, giving the audience a sample of each artist's musical style. Only the Opry … there's nothing quite like it anywhere else!Â

Working personnel, including media, will continue to enter the arenas through designated gates where they will be subject to screening and bag inspections already in effect for the SEC Basketball Tournament.
