Where Every Family Matters

Hooky Nashville Opens April 29 in Nashville Yards

Get ready to play: Hooky Nashville opens Wednesday, April 29, bringing a sprawling mix of movies, bowling, arcade action, and dining to downtown.

Hooky Entertainment — the large-scale entertainment complex featuring seven dine-in cinemas, bowling, arcade games and more opens in downtown Nashville on Wednesday, April 29.

The centerpiece will be the luxury movie theaters with plush reclining seats and big-screen sound. Families can watch the latest blockbuster, catch a special screening, or make movie night feel a little more special than the living-room couch — with bottomless popcorn.

And Hooky is designed to be more than a theater. Inside, families will also find:

— Bowling lanes for friendly family competitions

— A colorful arcade packed with games, video games and prizes

— A full restaurant with kid-friendly options

— Space for birthday parties and group events

Expect specials, activity discounts and promotions weekly.

Do Kids Need an Adult?

At some existing Hooky locations, minors must be accompanied by an adult during certain hours, especially in the evenings. Policies for the Nashville location haven’t been fully announced yet, but parents should expect family-friendly guidelines that require adult supervision for younger guests.

Where to Park

Parking is easy but will cost you in the Nashville Yards district, for $15 – $20 for a short visit. A downtown evening will be $35 or higher.

  • East Garage – 910 Exchange Lane

  • West Garage – 21 Platform Way S

  • North Garage – 101 Platform Way N

These garages are open 24/7 and located steps from the entertainment district.

Your Takeaway

Hooky Nashville may just become a go-to for any-day fun, birthday parties, teen hangouts and easy (if not pricey) family nights out. It’s located in Nashville Yards at 931 Church Street, Nashville, 37203.
