The Holly Jolly Hunt hands you a phone and a simple challenge: find holiday-themed items, capture them, and outscore the other teams.

You step onto a December street in Nashville and the city answers with lights, storefront displays and the hum of a downtown that never stops performing. The Holly Jolly Hunt hands you a phone and a simple challenge: find holiday-themed items, capture them, and outscore the other teams. It’s less about racing and more about noticing—the oversized wreath daring you from a courthouse balcony, a store window that winkingly rearranges a Santa hat.
Nashville’s streets carry layers of history: turn-of-the-century brick, mid-century neon, and the musical pulse that put the city on the map. The route threads near landmark districts—Lower Broadway’s neon for the showman in you, and quieter residential blocks where homeowners vie to outdo each other with lights. The urban geology is concrete and cobblestone, with parks and plazas that offer quick photo ops and breathing room.
Culturally, the hunt leans into Nashville’s festive spirit: community-run light displays, pop-up holiday markets, and impromptu carolers. Local shopkeepers often play along, making the game feel like a citywide collaboration.
Practical guidance: the game lasts roughly an hour and moves on foot across flat urban terrain—comfortable shoes and a charged phone are essential. Start in daylight if you want family-friendly visibility; evenings amplify the lights but add crowds and colder temperatures. Use public transit or rideshare to reach the start point, and set a meeting spot in case your group fragments. Keep a portable charger, respect private property and businesses, and treat public art and displays gently. The Holly Jolly Hunt is simple, social, and an efficient way to see Nashville’s holiday character in one spirited hour.
