Show Proof of Purchase and Claim NML Festival Ticket Here
(Nashville, Tennessee – July 15, 2022) Due to the recent cancellation of the Tennessee Fields music festival, Nashville Meets London (NML) organizers have announced they will offer free entry into the NML Music Festival to 100 Tennessee Fields ticket-holders daily.
NML Co-Founder, Peter Conway, shared, “There is a lot of talk about our country music community being a family. And as promoters, we are very saddened to learn about the demise of our great friend Georgie’s ‘Tennessee Fields (TF)’ festival. We know the time, money, and energy Georgie has expended over the last few years in putting the festival on – thus a sad loss to the Country festival calendar. 2022 is proving to be a tough year for all promoters. Thus, the NML team will be delighted to host a limited number of Tennessee Fields ticket holders (100 per night) free of charge to either one of our two-day festival (24/25 August) on a first-come basis.”
Interested parties can claim their NML ticket by submitting their name, point of contact, and proof of purchase (to Tennessee Fields) here.
The NML Music Festival will be held on August 24 and 25, 2022, in a new location, Trinity Buoy Wharf, East London. This year’s dynamic lineup includes Priscilla Block, Shy Carter, The Wandering Hearts, Candi Carpenter, Ruthie Collins, Manny Blu, Kyle Daniel, Sarah Darling, Essex County, Matt Hodges, Arbor North, and Tebey.
The new site is a stunning and cool new riverside venue opposite the O2 with an indoor stage and an outdoor seated area with food stalls and cashless bars. The festival will feature performances by 12 artists, with six sets scheduled for each day. Performances will be held between 4-11 p.m. on both days. DJ Hish will perform in between sets, while Absolute Radio Country host, Matt Spracklen, will compère the event.
