Fridays by the River Returns to Shelby Park This April

NASHVILLE, TN — March 25, 2025 Spring has officially landed, and East Nashville Beer Works is kicking it off in style. Their beloved Fridays by the River series is back, starting Friday, April 4, and running for six straight weeks at the Riverview Pavilion in Shelby Park.

Presented by City Cast Nashville and benefiting Friends of Shelby Park, this weekly pop-up beer garden is a springtime favorite for a reason. From 3–8 PM every Friday, expect a relaxed outdoor setting with:

- Beer served fresh from the ENBW beer truck
- Cider, wine, and rotating batch cocktails
- Food trucks, live music, and a kid-friendly play zone

It’s all for a good cause—a portion of all sales go to Friends of Shelby, a nonprofit that supports Nashville’s Shelby Park and Bottoms.

Whether you're winding down your week or looking for a family-friendly hang, Fridays by the River offers a perfect mix of beer, nature, and community.

📍 Riverview Pavilion, Shelby Park
🗓️ Fridays, April 4 – May 9, 2025 | 3 PM – 8 PM
🎶 Free entry | Food, drinks, and donations benefit @friendsofshelby
