Father’s Day is right around the corner, and if you’re still trying to figure out how to celebrate Dad this year, we’ve got you covered. Whether he’s into food, music, adventure, or just a good old-fashioned day out with the fam, there’s something on this list that will make him feel appreciated. From fun experiences to tasty specials, here’s how to treat the father figure in your life this Father’s Day in Nashville.
Adventure Awaits at The Adventure Park
Looking for a fun, active way to celebrate Father’s Day in Music City? Skip the usual necktie and give Dad a little adventure instead. The Adventure Park at Nashville’s Father’s Day deal will get pops off the couch and into the trees. Literally.
On June 15, dads can climb for free with the park’s Buy One, Get One Free ticket deal. Just grab a three-hour climbing ticket for yourself and your dad joins in at no extra cost. It’s the perfect excuse to spend quality time together ziplining, climbing, and conquering the aerial obstacle courses at Nashville’s largest outdoor adventure park. Whether your dad’s an adrenaline junkie or just looking to try something new, this is one Father’s Day he won’t forget. For tickets and more info, head to myadventurepark.com/Nashville.
Catch a Flick with Dad
If your dad’s more into popcorn and plot twists than high-flying adventure, a movie at the Belcourt Theatre might be just the ticket. This historic Nashville gem always has a thoughtfully curated lineup, from indie favorites to classic throwbacks. It’s the perfect low-key way to spend quality time together (plus, it’s air-conditioned, which is a win in June). Check the Belcourt’s schedule to see what’s playing on Father’s Day and treat Dad to a flick (and maybe a beer from the concession stand while you’re at it).
Rev Up the Father’s Day Fun
If your dad likes hot wheels but you don’t exactly have the money to buy him a vintage car, take him to see over 100! Tickets for Cheekwood’s Exposition of Elegance: Classic Cars at Cheekwood are on sale now, and this is such a fun way to spend the day. Find out more about this special Father’s Day weekend here.
Dine on an Italian Dinner
Does dad like Italian food? Bring him to Amerigo for a dinner (or brunch) that the whole family will love. Make your reservation here.
Sip Whiskey + Enjoy Wagyu
Take Father’s Day dining up a notch by going to The Gulch’s Carne Mare for steak! They’ll be offering a special menu for Father’s Day, including a 10 oz Boneless Wagyu Striploin accompanied by a choice of Homemade Compound Butters and contorni, all paired with a celebratory pour of Uncle Nearest Single Barrel Whiskey. Reserve your spot here. We already did!
Dad Jokes AND Dinner
Get dinner to go at Chef’s Market this Father’s Day! They’ve dubbed this the Dad Joke Dinner. Choose between Mansker Meatloaf and New England Pot Roast for dad’s main, served with two sides, dinner rolls, and your pick of house-made cake. Place your order by June 11 and pick up on June 14. Place your order here.
Dine at Home
Bring the restaurant straight to your door with Miel’s Father’s Day special. You can enjoy bone-in smoked + braised short ribs, baked Farmer Dave russet potatoes with tallow and smoked Maldon salt, and a fresh vinegar-based slaw packed with kohlrabi, cabbage, apple and herbs for four people for $195. Pick up your order on June 14 from 2 PM to 6 PM.
Brunch + Bloody Marys
The Restaurant at W Nashville will have a very special setup for Father’s Day, including a carving station, seafood buffet, pastries, hot breakfast items, and more! You can also opt in to build your own Bloody Mary or free-flowing mimosa specials.
Halls Catch + Halls Chophouse
Halls Catch, which is normally closed on Sunday, will be open on Father’s Day from 12 PM to 9 PM. They’ll offer their full menu but there’s also the option of a Halls Catch Seafood Boil for $60. Make your reservation here. If Halls Chophouse is more your vibe, they’ll also be open from 11 AM to 10 PM. Reservations are open here.
