Events & Engagement

Area Advisory Councils

Area Advisory Councils (AACs) bring the Chamber’s purpose to life across six distinct geographic areas of Davidson County — Downtown, North, South, East, West, and Midtown. Each council serves as a neighborhood-level hub for networking and collaboration, connecting Chamber members through experiences that highlight local businesses, encourage engagement, and strengthen Nashville’s economy.

Area Advisory Council Events

Each council hosts a three-event series throughout the year designed to foster connection and learning, increase visibility, and strengthen Nashville’s business ecosystem. All AACs are free to Chamber members and available to the community with a ticket purchase. 

Happy Hours

Relaxed networking gatherings at local venues where participants connect, share ideas, and build meaningful professional relationships.

Speed Networking

Fast-paced, structured sessions that produce multiple new business connections and promote collaboration across industries and communities.

Content Sessions

Engaging programs featuring panels, presentations, and discussions designed to inform, inspire, and deliver actionable insights.

Learn more about each AAC and the neighborhoods it represents. Councils are open to all, regardless of geographic location.
