Just 20 miles south of Nashville is the charming town of Franklin. With boutiques, eateries, galleries and antique shops housed in restored Victorian buildings, Franklin offers the classic American Main Street experience.

And right in the middle of it all is the Franklin Theatre. Opened in 1937, the Franklin Theatre continues to screen movies but is now also a venue for live music and events. The historic property with its illuminated marquee is a testament to a simpler way of life and for locals a beloved treasure.
