Drag yourself out of the hotel with the Queens
Throughout Nashville, the Drag community is vast, expansive and a truly unique experience to encounter when attending a show, or even a lunch event. When you are dressed up and ready to show out with the most fierce and fabulous performers that Nashville has to offer, you plan for a sit down with these queens. If laugher is the best medicine, we could consider all of these performers to be doctors as well.

Union Tavern Sunday Drag Lunch
4.3 ★
Sunday brunch in the middle of downtown Nashville is already a winning idea, only an insane person is going to turn down a great brunch session with friends. The only way to make an already flawless choice that much more enticing would be by adding the rotating cast of Nashville based Drag queens as hosts for the event. Maybe you should go ahead and book your stay at the Bobby Hotel so you won’t have the chance to miss out on the Union Tavern Sunday Drag Lunch that goes down every week.
Obsess over some hot guys
Traditional media has regularly featured a female stripper being hired as a gift to husbands-to-be during their bachelor parties, sort of one last hurrah before taking on the ball and chain. Now, in the post Magic Mike era, there are more than enough male stripper fantasies being lived out and we can’t think of a more fitting way to celebrate getting married with your girls.
