Starting CHEST 2022 off with a step kick

After years of remote learning from behind computer screens, we’re kicking off the in-person CHEST 2022 meeting in Nashville, Tennessee, with a bang—or, more accurately, with a step kick, swivel, and stomp—at the Wildhorse Saloon.

The Wildhorse is famous for hosting daily line dancing lessons on the largest dance floor in the downtown area and for having a menu full of Nashville favorites, including Nashville hot chicken and a hearty selection of entrees (as well as a decadent bananas foster) with a “Jack Daniels” single barrel whiskey glaze.

The opening reception offers attendees the opportunity to relax and reconnect with their peers from across the fields of pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine before the jam-packed schedule of more than 300 educational sessions starts the following day.

But the fun doesn’t stop there. Attendees interested in exploring the city after hours have a host of options, from world-class music venues to iconic distilleries and restaurants. The Music City Center, where CHEST 2022 will be held, is located in the SoBro neighborhood of Nashville, not far from the Arts District, Downtown, and Music Row.

According to Nashville local and CHEST member Meredith Pugh, MD, MSCI, “it goes without saying that we have the best music scene in the country, but it’s a great place for outdoor activities and food.”

For those who don’t get their fill at the Wildhorse, Dr. Pugh recommends attendees check out the Assembly Food Hall (.3 miles from the convention center) to try the city’s famous Nashville Hot Chicken and a variety of other local options. And, don’t miss the many excellent options for BBQ. Fellow Nashville transplant and CHEST member Todd Rice, MD, FCCP, suggests Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint and Jack’s Bar-B-Que—both within walking distance of the Music City Center—as well as other local options.
