Eight months after the announcement of his brand new Nashville bar, Category 10, Luke Combs took to social media today to announce the bar’s opening as well as some key updates on the arrangement of the venue.
Hours ago, the official Category 10 X account posted, “Get ready for an ice-cold beer and a country song. We’ll see y’all in November,” along with a video that shared a sneak peek of the bar under construction.
Category 10, which is a reference to Combs‘ certified diamond debut single on country radio, “Hurricane,” is taking over Wildhorse Saloon at 120 Second Avenue in Nashville.
Along with the construction update, it was revealed that Category 10 will contain five distinct experiences across the 69,000 square feet venue which includes three indoor levels, as well as a 9,000-square-foot rooftop. These experiences will range everything from a dance floor to a separate sports bar to a speakeasy.
According to the X thread that Category 10 started, these five distinct experiences, inspired by songs in Combs‘ discography, are the following:
- The Honky-Tonk: Eat, drink, dance, lift your cup, and sing along all day and night long at our authentic, next-level take on the traditional honky-tonk rocking with live country music.
- Hurricane Hall: You won’t find a bigger dance floor or stage in downtown Nashville than right here. See top-shelf bands and concerts, Hurricane Hall’s thrilling, must-see light show, and dance like no one’s watching with the Cat 10’s line dance team.
- The Still: Cat 10’s own version of a speakeasy for Nashville’s whiskey lovers and singer-songwriters, this intimate bourbon bar has it all: superb drinks, excellent music, and walls lined with Luke Combs memorabilia.
- 5 Leaf Clover Sports: Cheer on your favorite teams year-round with wall-to-wall screens at the ultimate destination for sports in downtown Nashville complete with the best game-day eats and drinks.
- The Eye: Get the best views of the Cumberland River from Nashville’s largest indoor/outdoor rooftop and find yourself in the middle of all of the great vibes at The Eye. (Coming early 2025)
Currently, there is no specific date for Category 10’s opening, just a vague November 2024 window.
Here’s a sneak peak at what the bar will look like once construction is fully finished:
