Dixie Stampede
- Dolly Parton’s Dixie Stampede, which combines live animals, dramatic lighting and sound, and pyrotechnics with a four-course dinner—think 21st century Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show—provides groups with banquet service, themed meeting space, dedicated dinner shows, and two meeting areas that can accommodate an audience of 50-100. The Stampede also offers group discount rates, and unlike in the days of Buffalo Bill, vegetarian meals are available upon request. www.dixiestampede.com
House of Blues
- This perennial group-favorite venue boasts a range of room rental options, from a single room to the whole house. Specializing in Southern cuisine, the facility’s chefs, however, can mix up the menu to satisfy any taste, and its state-of-the-art sound, roster of entertainment and funky decor add up to a highly energized and easy to organize special event option for groups from small to large. www.hob.com
