What's hotter than the Fourth of July? The first annual Hot Chicken Festival in East Park on July 4 followed by the annual Independence Day Celebration and Fireworks at Riverfront Park. The hot chicken festivities will be from noon to 2 pm on Woodland Street in East Nashville and the Let Freedom Sing entertainment will begin at 4 pm downtown on the west bank of the Cumberland River.

YUM! I like it hot! Free samples to the first 400 people...!
