What’s hotter than the Fourth of July? The annual Music City Hot Chicken Festival celebrating an original Nashville culinary tradition on Sunday, July 4, from noon – 4 p.m. at East Park on Woodland Street. This free community event benefits Friends of Shelby Park and features the unique southern flare of local restaurants and puts amateur cooks head-to-head in competition for the best hot chicken recipe.
The fiery festivities feature free samples from Bolton’s Spicy Chicken and Fish, The Chicken Shack and Prince’s Hot Chicken Shack to name a few, as well as entertainment and activities for the entire family.
