Nashville knows how to throw a party. The Music City Grand Prix (MCGP) will combine our convenient downtown with insights from the successes of other large events in Music City to host a three-day international festival of speed, sound, food and fun. In partnership with the Tennessee Titans, Nissan Stadium and INDYCAR, this high-energy event will bring world-class racing to the streets of Nashville and attract families and fans from near and far, offering something for everyone! As a privately funded event, MCGP will be responsible for the successful execution of the event and is working closely with Metro and State officials and agencies to make the necessary plans and improvements to make this a best-in-class addition to the city’s annual event calendar.
