Live On The Green Makes a Welcome Return in 2022

by Rich and Laura Lynch

Nashville's beloved Live On The Green music festival has not been seen on the green since 2019 due to becoming another tragic loss rendered by reaction to the pandemic. But, they returned this year with five big nights over Labor Day weekend while logging their 71st total daily showing by the time festivities wrapped up on September 5th. What stood out this year was that 30 of the 38 performers call Music City their home and fans turned out in droves to welcome everyone back to the fold in a joyous celebration of normalcy and hope for better days ahead. Here are some photos from Night #1.


Finally! Live On The Green made a welcome return in 2022.
