Nashville, Music City USA! Grand Ol Golf and Valley GO-KARTS!
Located on Music Valley Drive near Opryland Resort and Convention Center.
Race side by side with your family and friends around hair-pin turns on the Mid-State's largest track! Featuring both single and double go-karts. 5:00 until they close! (8:30)
I did this recently with about 20 people and it was a blast! There are plenty of places to get a meal and it's family friendly. You'll have a hard time beating your kids. Bring them along, however, please check into the height requirement to drive. Even if you don't drive there is plenty to do in their amusement area.

Carol, the Management, says whe will accomodate us and leave the track open until 8:30 as long as we can guarentee her at least 25 rides. I know from experience, you can't just drive once! Crash and Bash was our motto! (but don't tell Carol that)

Children must be 10 years old and 53 inches tall to ride alone. If you do not meet this requirement then you may ride the double go kart (2 seater) as long as the driver is 16 or older. Children must be 3 years old and 36 inches tall to ride in a double.

Open all year except Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day,
and New Years Day

Group Go Kart Rates
15 or more ( One ride per person )
Single seat $6.00
Double seat $7.00

    I had to purchase 25 tix at $6 each for us to reserve our night. (Regular prices for the carts are $7, and $8 for the doubles.) We will be able to ride both types of karts for $6.00 per ride. We have the place 5:00 until around 8:30. Not only do we get to ride but we can also entertain ourselves in their amusement area and go putt-putt golfing.

    Hello everyone. In order to reserve our evening I have had to purchase $150 in tickets in advance. When you first initially arrive you will need to purchase from this lot of tickets. After that additional tickets are purchased through the ticket office at Valley Go-Karts. So everyone please bring a little bit of cash for these first tickets. Tickets through the office can be purchased via credit card. Thanks.
