Laid-out along the eastern bank of the Cumberland River, with LP Field at its back, the River Lawn and Landing offers splendid views of downtown Nashville from across the river. Away from the hubbub of Cumberland Park, yet within walking distance of downtown's many eateries and attractions, this riverfront park is a great place to simply relax and enjoy a few moments of peace and solitude. The park is a part of the city's riverfront revitalization project, and is all set to become the venue of choice for a host of outdoor events, festivals, fairs and concerts. The River Lawn and Landing is already noted as the venue of the Cumberland River Dragon Boat Festival and many more.
