Athens of the South
Nashville is nicknamed the Athens of the South for the Parthenon replica in Centennial Park. Take a group photo on the steps where everyone strikes their best classical Greek pose.
Bourbon and Broadway cheers
Find a spot on Broadway or any honky-tonk patio, grab a Tennessee whiskey, sweet tea or lemonade and take a group toast photo. To Music City!
Busker selfie
Nashville buskers play live music on every corner of Broadway. Find one, drop a tip and take a group photo with the musician clearly visible. Bonus if everyone is dancing.
Checkpoint: Centennial Park Parthenon
Navigate to the full-scale replica of the Parthenon in Centennial Park. Check in when the team is standing in front of its columns.
Checkpoint: Country Music Hall of Fame
Navigate to the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. Check in once the giant note-shaped windows are in front of the team.
Checkpoint: Lower Broadway
Navigate to Lower Broadway, the heart of Nashville's honky-tonk strip. Check in once the team can hear at least three different bands at once.
Checkpoint: Ryman Auditorium
Navigate to the Ryman Auditorium, the Mother Church of Country Music. Check in once you are at the entrance.
Cowboy boot shop
Nashville has more cowboy boot stores than almost any city in America. Step into one (Boot Country, Betty Boots or any) and take a group photo where everyone tries on (or just poses next to) a pair of boots.
Group finale in Nashville
The final challenge! Find a beautiful Nashville spot (Broadway, the Ryman, the Pedestrian Bridge) and take an amazing group photo with the whole team in shot. A photo for the ages, well done everyone!
Hall of Fame anthem pose
Stand outside the Country Music Hall of Fame and take a group photo where each team member sings (or pretends to sing) a different country song into an imaginary microphone. The more dramatic, the better.
Honky-tonk neon shot
Lower Broadway is a stack of neon honky-tonk signs (Tootsies, Robert's, Legends Corner). Pick your favourite sign and take a group photo with the neon glowing behind you. Cowboy hats are bonus points.
Hot chicken challenge
Hot chicken is the Nashville dish. Find any hot chicken spot (Hattie B's, Prince's, anywhere), order a level you can handle, share with the team and take a photo of the first bite. Tear-streaked faces welcome.
Mother Church pose
The Ryman has hosted everyone from Hank Williams to Taylor Swift. Take a group photo at the entrance where everyone strikes a pose as if they are about to walk on stage for their headlining show.
Music City kick-off
The hunt begins! Find a typical Nashville backdrop (a neon honky-tonk sign, a cowboy boot, a guitar mural) and take a group photo where everyone jumps in the air. Everyone off the ground or it does not count.
Nashville local guide
Convince a local Nashvillian to share one favourite venue, restaurant or hot take about the city. Take a photo with your impromptu guide and remember the tip.
