Is Nashville open?

Yes, mostly. The majority of businesses in Nashville are allowed to operate while following social distancing, mask usage, and other select guidelines. As of June 29, 2020, masks are mandated (see official guidelines). Restaurants and bars serving alcohol must end service at 1:00am and close by 2:00am. Restaurants that don’t serve alcohol may stay open 24 hours.

Phase 4 will not begin for at least 28 days after Phase 3 if conditions improve.
