For music fans in Music City, it’s a weekend of sad and possibly promising news. Developers have announced a plan to build a $40 million amphitheater and adjacent entertainment complex in Murfreesboro, a city within easy driving range of Nashville.
If built as planned, the Sunset complex will give the greater Nashville area three fixed amphitheaters, where as recently as eight years ago there were none. Generations of central Tennesseans grew up seeing major acts at the Starwood Amphitheatre, but after that venue closed in 2007, there were no opportunities to see a season of outdoor shows in the area until the Ascend Amphitheater opened in downtown Nashville in 2015. The Ascend, operated by Live Nation, has a capacity of 6,800.
With few opportunities to develop new music venues within the Nashville city limits, nearby cities have been looking to take up some of that slack. Besides the 2021 opening of Franklin’s new amphitheater, the city of Madison will be getting a new 1,000-capacity indoor space, calledThe possibility of having three amphitheaters in the area by next year will seem ironic to many Nashville residents, who for years wondered if anything would be built to replace the Starwood as an outdoor venue.
