On February 1st 2025, Metropolis announced expansion of its popular Musicians Discount Parking Program to now include musicians playing at Nashville’s independent venues through the addition of the Music Venue Alliance Nashville as an official partner. This means 60% off parking at 20+ lots owned and operated by Metropolis across Nashville. Through the expansion of this program, in partnership with the Office of Nightlife, Metropolis has also updated lot locations, strategically aligning their locations to be within walking distance of MVAN Member venues wherever possible.

"We are ecstatic that Metropolis has now brought independent venues into this amazing program," said Chris Cobb, President of the Music Venue Alliance Nashville. "As we discovered through the Greater Nashville Music Census, parking has become one of the greatest concerns for our local music community as Nashville has grown. Metropolis stepping up in such a big way to help us address that issue is a major win. This is a great example of what can happen when we work together and prioritize keeping Music City music friendly for those who keep the engine running every day."

There are two primary ways musicians can participate:

Play a stage within the Music Venue Alliance Nashville: Any musicians performing at an independent venue that's a member of the Music Venue Alliance Nashville will be eligible for the discount. Member venues will have a QR code available to share ahead of each show, or for scanning upon load in, day of show.

Be a member of the Nashville Musicians Association, AFM Local 257. All active members of the NMA are also eligible to participate. Contact NMA for more information at 615-244-9514.
