Grammy-winning country Entertainer of the Year Luke Combs will perform at his Category 10 Lower Broadway honky-tonk on April 15 as a part of a week of “grand opening” festivities.
Nashville’s entertainment and social calendar continues to fill, with the latest celebration coming from the growing reach of Grammy-winning country chart-topper Luke Combs.
Hot on the heels of receiving a star on the Music City Walk of Fame on April 15, the “Hurricane” performer will appear for a rare performance at “Category 10,” his new Lower Broadway honky-tonk.
Combs’ “Bootleggers” fan club members have already witnessed him appearing at his namesake venue in the former Wildhorse Saloon a handful of times.
However, Combs’ “Big Kickoff” concert is much more involved.
Tickets for the April 15 concert are available at https://www.axs.com/events/906885/luke-combs-tickets.
“I am pumped that The Eye rooftop is now open, and that Category 10 is officially ready for a summer in Nashville! I can’t wait for everyone to see the venue and have a chance to come party with us on its big night,” the former Country Music Association Entertainer of the Year said in a statement.

Category 10, what to know, in brief
Category 10 showcases how the Opry Entertainment Group transformed the former, 1994-opened, multi-level Wildhorse Saloon space into a modern elevated experience. The venue caters to live music fans via talent lineups emphasizing up-and-coming artists curated by the Opry Entertainment team.
“I know what I love and what my band and crew love and that’s a state-of-the-art venue and place that takes care of you from a hospitality standpoint. That’s how you get an act to come somewhere and come back. That’s important in a business model for a place like this. I know Opry Entertainment can get that done,” Combs told The Tennessean upon the venue’s Nov. 2024 opening.
Now completed, Category 10 features a Combs-themed “Honky-Tonk,” Hurricane Hall with its 3,000-square-foot dance floor, intimate craft-liquor-themed singer-songwriter mini-venue The Still, upstairs sports bar 5 Leaf Clover Sports and the brand-new 10,000 square-foot rooftop, The Eye.
The entertainment complex also hosts free-line dancing lessons and displays “The Light Show” at Hurricane Hall for guests to enjoy. For the daily schedule for these activities and more information and updates on Category 10, visit www.category10.com.
