So Nashville will be even livelier than usual, with more people, music, and events! Yeehaw! 🤠 What's an Invasion? It's a Couch Crash that comes to YOUR city. What's a Couch Crash? Read more here: https://blog.couchsurfing.com/how-to-plan-a-couch-crash/ Accommodation: In addition to sending requests to hosts, it’s also helpful to post a public trip. If you can't find a host, there are many options for Airbnbs and hotels. Please be aware that due to the CMA Fest, that it’s best to look for a host or book your potential hotel/Airbnb as soon as possible. Transportation: The WeGo Public Transit system operates buses throughout the city, and you can pay with cash or buy a WeGo card at select locations. While downtown is walkable, other areas are more spread out, so a rental car or rideshare might be the most convenient option. Parking is available but can be pricey in busy areas, so plan ahead if you're driving. Weather: Keep in mind that in past years it got up to 95°F during June, and the weather could vary wildy. So keep an eye on the forecast as the Invasion gets closer and plan accordingly. Please reach out to one of the organizers if you have any questions!
