Kane Brown, whom Billboard previously named “the future of country music,” is partnering with Detroit-based Elia Group to announce the opening of “Kane Brown’s On Broadway.” This new multi-story bar, restaurant and live music venue is set to open its doors this summer. The venue will be located in Nashville’s Lower Broadway district in the historic building that previously housed The Valentine.
“We’ve really taken our time developing the bar. We wanted to make it a place that stands apart from everything else on Lower Broadway. I wanted to build a place that I want to hang out at, my friends want to hang out at and will be an unforgettable experience for anyone who visits. Nights in Nashville are about to hit a little bit different,” says Brown.
Spanning four dynamic levels and 11,400 square feet, “Kane Brown’s On Broadway” captures the full spectrum of the singer’s artistry and the spirit of Broadway. Brown spent many nights at The Valentine in his early career, drawn to its live music and unmistakable energy within its historic walls. Now, the opportunity to collaborate on a venue of his own is a full-circle moment. From spending Saturdays at The Valentine cheering on the Georgia Bulldogs as a patron to now having his name on the building, both Elia Group and Brown knew this partnership would reflect years of deep-rooted ties.
“Our partnership with Kane Brown marks a defining moment for Elia Group and for the city of Nashville,” said Zaid Elia, Founder & CEO of Elia Group. “He is a visionary artist who has continually redefined boundaries while remaining deeply rooted in authenticity—a philosophy that mirrors our own approach to hospitality at the highest level. For Elia Group, this collaboration represents the latest milestone in our longstanding and unwavering commitment to Nashville. It underscores our sustained investment in transformative, iconic properties; in immersive, thoughtfully curated design; and in guest experiences that celebrate the city’s rich heritage while actively shaping its vibrant future. We are honored to partner with an artist of Kane Brown’s stature to bring to life a project that is unmistakably Nashville: bold in vision, warm in spirit and unforgettable in every detail.”
The main floor ignites with energy, anchored by a full-scale live music stage set against exposed brick and steel-and-glass accents. Above it, a mezzanine offers an elevated vantage point with dedicated bar service and prime stage views, ideal for fans and private gatherings alike. The third-floor lounge shifts into a richer, more intimate mood, wrapped in walnut paneling, platinum records, and curated portraits, a space for bottle service, private parties, and unforgettable nights rooted in community. Crowning it all, the rooftop delivers Broadway’s ultimate day-to-night evolution, moving from sunlit brunch and frozen cocktails to a golden-hour celebration and, finally, late-night music, DJs and drinks set against the Nashville skyline.
For Elia Group, the partnership announcement with Kane Brown is the next milestone in its plan to open multiple hospitality venues in Nashville over the next three years. The group’s commitment to Music City also includes ZUZU Nashville, a bold, immersive, upscale Asian-inspired dining experience located on 1st Avenue South. In December 2025, Elia Group also announced its third Nashville concept on 3rd Avenue in the former Layer Cake venue, with an artist partnership to be revealed soon.
The news of “Kane Brown’s On Broadway” marks yet another milestone and banner year for Brown. In 2025, his acclaimed album The High Road, launched an arena tour of the same name, Brown earned his second RIAA Diamond certification with “What Ifs” featuring Lauren Alaina, he guest-starred on 9-1-1: Nashville, and executive-produced the Lifetime film Thank God: Christmas at Keller Ranch alongside his wife, Katelyn Brown.
