Woolworth Theatre

So much history here. And it has been revitalized into a live event space. We had seats on the floor, in the back, to stage left and still had a fairly good view of everything. They've kept a nod to the history of the iconic Woolworths Lunch Counter in one of the front windows. Downstairs they've opened the Woolworth Lounge which has a full drink menu and some light eats. Prices are pretty standard for Nashville night life. Staff is super friendly and helpful.

We recently had an event in the Lounge area of the Woolworth. Everything was amazing. I have helped host many events, and this one went off perfectly. Working with Benton was a dream, he was kind, cooperative and reliable. We got there and everything was set up exactly as planned. He also worked with us to change a few things right on the spot. The food was great, the other staff working the event were helpful and kind to all of our guests. I would totally recommend hosting an event at The Woolworth Theatre!

I recently had the opportunity to coordinate a work event at the Woolworth Theatre, and I must say, the experience was absolutely fantastic. Although I couldn't attend the event myself, I had the pleasure of working closely with Benton, the Director of Events, who made the entire process seamless and enjoyable. From the moment I connected with Benton, I knew we were in good hands. He demonstrated an incredible attention to detail and was highly responsive throughout the planning process. He took the time to truly understand our group's needs and desires, ensuring that every aspect of the event would meet our expectations. In fact, he even went above and beyond by providing valuable suggestions to enhance our company's brand. To facilitate the event, I had several items shipped to Benton's attention, and when our team arrived to set up, everything was ready to go. The level of preparedness and efficiency was truly impressive. Even though I couldn't personally attend, I received glowing feedback from every person I spoke with. It was evident that Benton had created an unforgettable experience for everyone involved. One aspect that stood out to me was Benton's flexibility. He was incredibly accommodating when it came to shipping the items back and ensuring that our specific requirements were met. His willingness to go the extra mile made a significant difference in our overall satisfaction. Overwhelmingly, my experience at the Woolworth Theatre was exceptional. The combination of Benton's professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine dedication to creating a memorable event made it a resounding success. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to Nashville, where I'll definitely make it a point to stop by and say hi to Benton while enjoying some quality entertainment at this outstanding venue!

Show was very entertaining. Sitting at the outer edge seating made seeing all on stage activities a little harder. Recommend ordering tickets earlier. We all loved the show.

I wanted to take a moment to let you know how much my sister and friend enjoyed your performance. We all thought you were incredible, and we tipped generously to show our appreciation. Your energy and talent really made the show memorable for us! However, I feel compelled to share that we had a deeply unsettling experience with the Woolworth Theater. While I paid for five tickets, I was never refunded for two, and despite enjoying what I could see of the performance, my experience was overshadowed by an unfortunate incident. I was violently removed from the venue for simply tipping a dancer near the stage, for this I have video evidence. From multiple phones. Being thrown out onto the street without my belongings in such a manner was both frightening and upsetting. We’re deeply upset at how this situation was handled. Though our appreciation for your performance remains, we wanted to express that we will never be returning to the Woolworth Theater due to this unacceptable treatment. Wishing you all the best in your future shows.

Wonderful event for almost 300 people. Every staff member was helpful and genuinely happy to help. Benton - the Director of Private Events - worked with us from the very beginning to make sure our event would go smooth. Our attendees will rave about that night for years to come!

The Woolworth Theater is a great intimate venue. The staff were very nice and the drinks were good. We watched The Shiners show and had a great time. The show was very interactive and entertaining.

Wouldn't come here again if you paid me! There was supposed to be a cocktail hour for the event we were attending but they had another event in the bar area so we couldn't go in! Asked after the event going on in bar was over if they were still giving the $5 cocktails we were promised before our show and they refused and said an email was sent out which was a lie! Not a single person in the group of 30+ waiting had received an email! Only email I received was reminder about the show AND that cocktail hour was 5 till 6! What a terrible way to run a business! So wasted our time as we had to wait from 5 till almost 7 to get in for the show! Worst part of the trip! Virginia B Illinois

The Shiners were crazy amazing!!! The bartenders were so nice. I loved everything about my experience here

Stayed in an Air B&B at the Woolworth Theater and although no windows in Air B&B it was beautifully retro decorated, excellent location off of Broadway. Walgreens was right across the street and the famous Puckett's restaurant was on corner of same block. Lots of cafe's restaurants within walking distance as well as Broadway a few streets away. I would stay again for the comfortable apartment and for the location. I would definitely recommend this Air B&B apartment for sure!

We fully planned on eating snacks in the lounge before the show only to get here early and tell them they don't have staff for the lounge to serve food. And they open an hour before the show. Since we wanted to lounge and got there early, we took our business to assembly hall and the whiskey co next door. We did the ranch hands cowboy burlesque show which was entertaining but i wasn't a fan of the chair set up. Cramped like sardines.

Yelp wants a review every time we go. It's always awesome as well as the help. Merry Christmas

Attended a show over Thanksgiving weekend Shiners. The theater is beautiful. Very comfortable seating and theater is just the right size. Food, drinks and bar downstairs are fantastic. Just a few blocks from Broadway but a world of difference. Shiners show was fantastic and a must see for anyone when visiting Nashville.

Awesome small theatre. Would definitely go again. Great piece of Nashville history.
