It’s been quite a week for Luke Combs. Between his efforts to provide care for victims of Hurricane Helene and his recently revealed spot on Nashville’s Music City Walk of Fame, the “Where the Wild Things Are” singer has been pretty busy.
On top of all of this, Combs also has a brand new Nashville bar, Category 10, coming soon which just got an official opening date.
This morning, the Category 10 Instagram account officially announced that it will be opening its doors on Saturday, November 2nd.
Opening day festivities will begin early on November 2nd at 11 a.m. with local acts such as Brother Maven, Paige Rosen and other artists performing inside the the venue.
Additionally, an immersive light installation named “The Light Show” will be showcased inside one of the five unique sections of Category 10, Hurricane Hall. “The Light Show” will also include a one-of-a-kind synchronized dance performance from the venue’s dance team throughout the weekend.
Back in September, 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 a 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)
Along with the opening weekend festivities, exclusive merch will be available for purchase on Category 10’s ground floor.
