There’s a big show in Nashville this weekend. The third in a trio of three-day events is set for the Nashville Fairgrounds Friday-Sunday.
The fast growing event is an outgrowth of the regular shows that have been held at Lighthouse Christian School for the past several years. Promoter Jeff Roberts added a third multi-day event to the calendar this year.
The last larger Nashville show was held in July. Over 5,000 turned out for that one. This weekend’s event runs Friday-Sunday and at 700+ tables, it’ll be the largest ever held in the region.
