Join us for An Evening in the Country Music Hall of Fame — an exclusive dinner reception at the iconic Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum, reserved for TUG CONNECTS 2026 attendees.

Begin the night with cocktails and conversation in the grand Event Hall, then let the evening unfold around you. Explore the museum's legendary galleries with a private docent tour. Drift into the Conservatory, where Nashville songwriters perform in-the-round and share the stories behind the songs. And if you find your way to the Ford Theater, you'll discover something special waiting — a speakeasy, a bourbon tasting, and acoustic music you won't soon forget.

This is Nashville at its finest. This is the TUG CONNECTS community at its best!
