Rock 'n' Roll Nashville, live.

Five distances through Music City in one April weekend

The St. Jude Rock 'n' Roll Running Series Nashville returns on the weekend of 24 and 25 April 2027.

Nashville's Rock 'n' Roll weekend offers a marathon, a half marathon, a 10K, a 5K and a 1 mile race. For 2027 the registration page lists all five of them on Saturday 24 April.

The organiser says the 2027 courses are coming soon. In 2026 the marathon and the half marathon started at 8th and Broadway and finished at Nissan Stadium, home of the Tennessee Titans, with time limits of 6 hours and 4 hours. The 10K and the 5K started at 8th and Demonbreun and also finished at the stadium. The course page names the landmarks along the way: Broadway's honky tonks, Music Row, The Gulch, the Country Music Hall of Fame and Dolly Parton's recording studio.

With a marathon at one end and a 1 mile race at the other, the weekend works for a whole group of friends at very different levels. The organiser also lists a KiDS ROCK race and a Doggie Dash among the weekend's events.

Spectators can follow the music downtown and gather at Nissan Stadium for the finish. Check the organiser's course page for the 2027 routes and start times.

On Livebib you can follow a participant who chooses to share their own live position from the phone they carry. That position comes from the participant, not from the organiser's timing, and the official results are published by the organiser.
