    6:15 PM - 6:30 PMWalk from Hotel Indigo to Black Rabbit
    6:30 PM - 9:00 PMDinner at Black Rabbit - Hosted by Ash Brokerage
    We'll walk two blocks to the Black Rabbit—a true ode to old Nashville and the storied past of the historic Printer's Alley neighborhood in which it resides. Nashville chef Trey Cioccia (The Farm House) has crafted a cocktail bar and restaurant reminiscent of the early 1900s speakeasies that permeated Printer's Alley once upon a time in downtown Nashville.

    Black Rabbit is housed in a historic building dating back to the 1890s and attributes its name to a bygone New York cocktail bar. The space was once the law offices of Frank Ragano, legal counsel for Jimmy Hoffa and other notable figures of mafia notoriety, and is built around its intriguing history showing off 16-foot ceilings, exposed brick and original hardwood flooring. We left many of the original details intact in order to preserve the old-school energy that was already abundant throughout the building.
