We stumbled on this show on a visit to Franklin. Bummed out because I could not get tickets to the Blue Bird Cafe, but this show was a great experience! Very similar to the Blue Bird experience I assume. They should make this a priority to do more often. Great singer songwriters. Such a fun evening.

FRANKLIN THEATRE is the place for a variety of events. Tennessee International Indie Film Festival is an exciting event upcoming. The space lends itself to comraderie and an ambience that cannot be overstated. Love to be there.

We came to Nashville to hear great music and after we booked our hotel we noticed that Suzy Bogguss was playing near where we staying in Franklin, Tennessee. We knew nothing about the Franklin Theatre, but the locals to,d us that many big and small donors had resurrected this historical venue, notably Sheryl Crow who lives in the area. The seats are velour and high, staggered in order to give unobstructed viewing around the person ahead of you. The slope from front to back is about 30 degrees placing the people in the back some distance from the singers, but the venue is about the size of an average theater making this not a problem. There are no obstructed view seats although obviously the ones on the side of the sound booth in the back would not be as desirable. They were a little short on bar help, the bar manager was the bartender this evening. We didn’t have any food or treats on this night, but they are the equivalent of a movie theater fare; this venue also shows movies. The Suzy Bogguss concert was perfect for this venue, she does an occasional acoustic set and her classic mix off her Aces album resounded perfectly in an intimate venue like this. We saw her in Minneapolis at a larger venue designed in a more “surround-sound” type setting; the Franklin Theatre had better sound although the sight lines were better. We loved this place in Historic Downtown Franklin with easy parking and many fabulous food choices. Make reservations at the restaurants on concert nights especially on the weekends. Great experience, great people.

We agree with the last reviewer. We had a bad experience and will not return. Purchased tickets well in advance, with no vaccination requirement warning. We travelled from out of town and then were turned away at the door, by hostile employee, because we had no proof of vaccination. Turns out they sent an email the day before, in which, buried at the bottom in fine print, they advised that their policy had changed and vaccination proof was required. Big Brother is watching, and we will not be returning.

First time to ever go to this theatre. Drove all the way from Nashville. Got there and these Karens put up a COVID restriction 24 hours before the show to deny unvaccinated people access without a vaccine passport. Only place in all of Knoxville with this restriction, and they did this 24 hours before the event. No vaccine? No entry and No refund! So be prepared to show up there and show their Gestopo your papers, cuz you aint getting in! U of T won't even have these restrictions for their 100,000 stadium. The bars downtime don't even have these restrictions. Just utterly stupid and I'll never waste a drive down to see anything they put on.
