Bordellos, Burlesque, and Blood is a cocktail tour designed to imbibe guests with some of the lesser known, darker, seedier, more macabre history of downtown Nashville.

Highlights

• Visit what used to be referred to as 'The Men's Quarter.'
• Take a journey into what used to be the Red Light District in the mid-1800s.
• Explore Printer's Alley, publishing by day, mayhem at night.

Description

This 2-hour cocktail tour begins at 600 Church Street, near Cornerstone Square. Stop at Standard Proof Tasting Room & drown in the sorrows of a loveless marriage, an affair, and a murder. At the Bobby Hotel, step back into the mid-1800s in the red light district of 'Smokey Row.' Our next stop, Dream Nashville, welcomes you to what used to be referred to as 'The Men's Quarter,' where everything was once available to satisfy men's indulgent vices. Next up is Printer's Alley, where the daytime publishing companies were lit up at night from the over-flowing libations. The final stop of this tour is the CMT/Ryman Auditorium, where you'll hear the gruesome tale of Stringbean & Estelle.
