NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Nashville’s youngest business owners are getting ready to show off their big ideas.
The award-winning Children’s Entrepreneur Market has announced multiple events in the Nashville area for 2025, giving kids ages 5 to 17 the chance to launch their own businesses.
The first market is set for Saturday, September 6, from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Green Hills Park. It will be part of the Green Hills Park Fest.
Young entrepreneurs will be selling everything from lemonade and gourmet cinnamon rolls to handmade crafts, slime and even 3D-printed creations. The markets are designed to help kids build real-world experience, develop confidence and gain independence.
The markets are open to the public, and organizers encourage the community to come shop local and support Nashville’s youth. Four markets are scheduled in the area through November.

This is a story I immediately went home and showed my boys - young athletes with big dreams. The Vanderbilt football team's success has stolen the spotlight - what I love about Steve Layman's story is he reveals the individual hardships it took to get there. As Clark Lea says, "we all have scuff marks." This team proves perseverance pays off!
