The Mil upstairs is a fantastic venue! It feels like a much more intimate space than most venues. Even half way across the venue you feel in touch with the artists on stage.

It's well air conditioned so sweating to death while enjoying your show isn't an issue. The rest rooms are clean. The staff is helpful, but not in your face. Just a great place to see a show.

Great venue, excellent security and staff experience. Music is on point. Best of all they kept it cool inside! Great escape from the often hot, open air venues in Nashville

This was my first time attending an event at Cannery Hall, and overall, it was an amazing experience! The venue itself is fantastic—great acoustics, well-organized, and a solid selection of bar items. I also appreciated that they offered free water in a glass as an alternative to purchasing bottled water, which was a nice touch.

That being said, the entry process was confusing. We arrived early and initially lined up at the front door, but a staff member (who seemed inexperienced) directed us off the property to wait on the other side of the parking lot fence by the main road. It was poorly explained, and honestly, having attendees stand near a busy street felt unsafe and unnecessary. However, a helpful tip for future visitors—if you wait outside the fence, you actually get to enter before those waiting in their cars. Some clear signage and better-trained staff would go a long way in improving the check-in process.

Aside from that hiccup, the rest of the night was phenomenal. The EP Release Party event was a blast, the staff (minus the one misinformed individual) were excellent, and the atmosphere was top-notch. I’d absolutely return for another show—just with a better understanding of the entrance situation!
