HGTV walked so you could run. Put down the remote and head to Music City Center when the Antiques & Garden Show of Nashville, now in its 34th year, returns Friday, Jan. 12-Sunday, Jan. 14.
🗺️ Design your own adventure
Navigating downtown can be a task on any normal weekend, now let’s throw over 150 antiques, art, and horticultural vendors under one roof and ~16,000 attendees to the mix.
Use this showfloor map to preview vendor locations and dealers filed under “antiques” or “horticulture” categories. This year’s theme, “Welcome to Beautiful,” draws inspiration from the Herend Queen Victoria china pattern.
