Monster Jam brings three shows to Bridgestone Arena across January 9 and 10, 2027. Saturday runs a noon show and a 5:30 p.m. show. Sunday runs a 1 p.m. matinee. The arena sits at 501 Broadway.
Those three times leave different hours open, and a day-use room covers the hours between them.
Three show times across two days
Saturday, January 9 carries two performances, at 12:00 PM and 5:30 PM. Sunday, January 10 carries one, at 1:00 PM. The event page lists those three times and no doors time. The arena's own guidance to guests is to arrive early and travel light.
Charging sits at three sections and three kiosks
Charging stations for phones and tablets sit at Section 103 in the Guest Services Center built by Cabinets To Go, at Section 309 and at Section 312. ChargeFUZE kiosks dispense portable chargers at Sections 109, 207 and 328.
The Guest Services Center also sits at section 331. A guest who needs help during the show can text a location and an issue to 615-502-4848.
A cashless building with no re-entry
Bridgestone Arena runs cashless. Mobile payment and Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover are accepted at the building.
The arena enforces a no re-entry policy. A guest who leaves for a service animal or a personal emergency must have a ticket scanned out at the main entrance first.
Bags between 6 by 4 by 1.5 inches and 12 by 12 by 6 inches go through x-ray screening and visual inspection. Bags smaller than 6 by 4 by 1.5 inches use express lanes. Backpacks and bags larger than 12 by 12 by 6 inches are prohibited. The arena states it provides no on-site storage.
The box office opens on event days only and sells tickets for that day's event.
Matching a room window to a show time
A noon show on Saturday leaves the morning free. Best Western Plus Music Row holds a 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. window at $112, 0.80 straight-line miles from the arena. That window runs through the show and two hours past it. Holiday Inn Express Nashville Downtown-Broadway holds 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at $115, 0.33 miles from the arena.
The 5:30 p.m. Saturday show leaves the whole afternoon open. Hampton Inn Nashville / Vanderbilt runs a 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. window at $85, 1.25 straight-line miles out. The same card also opens 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., so a reader who wants a desk before the show and a shower after it books two windows.
Sunday's 1 p.m. matinee leaves the morning. The 121 Hotel holds an 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. window at $89, 2.28 miles from the arena. Best Western Plus Music Row covers the same show from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. at $112.
A Sunday matinee that ends mid-afternoon leaves one four-hour block in the day, and a day rate covers it. A family travelling with a gate time and a matinee fits the whole outing into that block.
The same weekend fills the district twice
The Antiques & Garden Show of Nashville runs January 8 through January 10 at Music City Center. The two venues sit 0.15 straight-line miles apart. Both events draw on the same downtown room inventory across the same three days, and the Sunday matinee shares its afternoon with the last five hours of the show floor.
A reader who books one slot for Saturday evening shares the district with a show that closes at 5 p.m. and a party that closes at 9 p.m. Book that Saturday early.
What the weekend costs
The 21 October 2026 read of the Nashville day-use market returned 31 priced cards from $66 to $170, with a mean of $99.17. Every figure in this piece is the fee-inclusive day rate, so each card's booking fee sits inside the number.
hotelSlots lists 103,857 hotels across 46 states and sells four slots: morning 6 a.m. to noon, afternoon noon to 6 p.m., evening 6 p.m. to midnight and overnight midnight to 6 a.m. The platform posts day-use rates 30 to 75 percent below the nightly rate and charges no booking fee.
A Saturday room at Best Western Plus Music Row runs $112 for ten hours of access to a desk, a bed and a shower two blocks from the arena. The same booking at Hampton Inn Nashville / Vanderbilt runs $85 for the evening window.
