Rock icon Peter Frampton and Mayor Megan Barry will lead a special countdown in Nashville to ring in the New Year – across the pond.
Frampton and Barry will lead the countdown at 6 p.m. CT – midnight U.K. time – to celebrate British Airways' nonstop flight to London, beginning May 4.
“Our new service to Music City is a highlight for British Airways in 2018 and we invite the Nashville community to join us on New Year’s Eve to ring in this exciting year – London style,” said, Rob McDonald, of British Airways. “In addition to bringing together Peter Frampton and Mayor Barry, who are connected with both cities, we will share a British pub experience and hope all will come by and raise a glass to the special new link between Nashville and London.”
British Airways is also partnering with the Nashville Convention & Visitors Corp to host a pop-up English pub at Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park beginning at 4 p.m. and continuing throughout the night on December 31.
All guests are welcomed to attend.
Tourism officials said the British New Year countdown will kick-off Jack Daniel’s Music City Midnight: New Year’s Eve in Nashville. Click here for more information.
