Moving Around Nashville Safely on St Patty's Day

Nashville is celebrating this year’s St. Patrick’s Day in style…..

This year, Nashville will host its annual “McPaddy Festival”. The party will begin at 10am on St. Patrick’s Day, March 17th, and will last all day. The festival will require the closing down of 2nd Avenue to Broadway and Commerce Stree near 3rd Avenue. Those expecting to move along these streets should seek alternative routes or prepare to wait….there are over 2,000 people expected at the festival..

Additionally, The Davidson County Sheriff’s Office is sponsoring its 7th year of “Sober Rides” St. Patrick’s Day evening. The sober rides are available by calling the Sheriff’s office at (615) 862.7433. Over 80 volunteers have made themselves available to pick up riders and safely deliver them home this St. Patrick’s Day, arguing that the “cost of calling a sober ride is cheaper than a DUI conviction” once you add in court costs, lawyer’s fees and insurance premiums.

Also in an effort to increase safety, the Sheriff’s Office will be increasing the number of patrolling officers around bars on St Patrick’s Day……

All My Sons of Nashville encourages you to move about the city with safety and caution on St. Patty’s Day. Moving or relocating to Nashville or Middle Tennessee?
