LUKE COMBS TO OPEN NASHVILLE ENTERTAINMENT SPACE IN PLACE OF ICONIC WILDHORSE SALOON (AUDIO)
Luke Combs is the latest country star to announce plans for a downtown entertainment concept.
Combs and Opry Entertainment Group, an arm of Ryman Hospitality Properties Inc., will reimagine Second Avenue’s iconic Wildhorse Saloon into a 69,000-square-foot entertainment complex with a total capacity of 3,200, inspired by Combs’ hit song “Hurricane.”
Combs’ venue will feature a 250-seat honky-tonk featuring daily live music, a ticketed concert hall for up to 1,500 people, a songwriters’ room, a third-floor sports bar, and a 9,000-square-foot rooftop bar.
The concert hall will be broken into sub-areas: one for Combs’ avid followers, “Bootleggers,” and one called the “Beautiful Crazy” section for bachelorette parties.
Combs’ bar was constructed for the same reason: to represent his interests in music, whiskey, and sports.
In 2023, Combs will embark on a worldwide tour that will take him to three continents, 16 nations, and 35 shows. It sold out in one day, demonstrating his massive fan following, which Combs’ let choose his next single to Country Radio. “Love You Anyway” is going for immediate airplay.
