June is 'concert season' in Nashville. Festivals, rock shows and Willie Nelson are among our top picks
The month of June in Nashville could be considered "concert season." Between the amphitheaters being open for the summer season and two of the area's biggest festivals happening this month, it's easy to check dozens of performers, from newcomers to legends, off the bucket list — in some cases with one ticket. Here are our top picks for June's live music scene: Wanna see Tigirlily Gold, Shaboozey, Kameron Marlowe, Parker McCollum, Cody Johnson, Kelsea Ballerini and Keith Urban? You don't have to pick one. You can see them all during CMA Fest. This lineup is just from one of the show-packed days of the fest which takes place all across downtown Nashville and features both up-and-coming country acts as well as some of the genre's biggest names on big and more intimate stages. The fest ends each night with a massive lineup inside Nissan Stadium. Tickets: Grammy Award-winner rapper Lil Baby brings his WHAM World Tour to Nashville's Bridgestone Arena with BigXthaPlug and Loe Shimmy. Lil Baby has sold 30 million albums and has 47 RIAA-certified platinum records, 45 RIAA-certified gold records, and over 75 billion global streams. Expect the night to be full of energy with moments of on-stage collabs and maybe even a surprise guest or two. Tickets: Rock review: AC/DC rocks Nashville with sold out Nissan Stadium concert after weather postponement: 'Thank you for sticking with us' Counting Crows burst onto the rock scene in the early '90s with their multi-platinum hit album "August and Everything After," which spawned massive hits such as "Round Here," and "Mr. Jones." The band went on to record seven more studio albums and received Grammy and Academy Award nominations for their song "Accidentally in Love" which the band recorded for the movie "Shrek 2." With The Gaslight Anthem opening, the night promises to be an excellent live rock show. Tickets: Pop-up show: All-American Rejects play rowdy house party in East Nashville and it almost didn't happen: 'This is where rock 'n' roll is born' If CMA Fest wasn't enough of a multi-day live music experience, or you just want to get your festival on, then Manchester's Bonnaroo is a must-see. With four days of music ranging from Olivia Rodrigo to Luke Combs, Goose, Avril Levigne, Red Clay Strays and Glorilla, there's something for everyone who loves live music. The festival offers single-day and multi-day tickets with varying ranges of VIP experiences available. Tickets: Riley Green and Ella Langley emerged with one of the songs you can't get out of your head in 2025: "You Look Like You Love Me," which took home Single and Music Event of the Year at this year's ACM Awards. Green is headlining the show along with Langley, Lauren Watkins and Preston Cooper, which should make for a fun show at a great outdoor venue. Tickets: Good deal: Nashville area concerts by Willie Nelson, Alison Krauss, Nelly among Live Nation's $30 summer tickets promotion Arguably two of the biggest names in music; Willie Nelson and Bob Dylan, will both take the FirstBank Amphitheater stage as part of the 10th anniversary Outlaw Music Festival. Joining these legends are members of the Nelson family along with Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats, Trampled By Turtles and Tami Neilson.
