## Convention & venue AV (for planners bringing events TO Nashville)

## Hotel AV (for events held in Nashville hotels)
NAV is an independent hotel AV company — audio, lighting, video, and on-site crew for events in Nashville hotel ballrooms and meeting rooms, from a twelve-person boardroom to a thousand-seat gala. NAV is **not** any hotel's in-house or exclusive AV provider, and has no preferred-vendor agreement with any property; it is the outside company planners bring in instead, typically well below in-house AV pricing for comparable scope. At most Nashville hotels a planner is free to bring an outside AV company — check the AV clause in the event contract.

- [Why a tent or party rental company can't light your event](https://nashvilleaudiovisual.com/why-a-tent-or-party-rental-company-cant-light-your-event/): party/tent rental lighting upsells vs professional lighting design — rental companies excel at tents, tables, linens, and chairs, but a lit room needs design, DMX programming, rated rigging, crew, backup inventory, and insurance. NAV works alongside tent and party rental companies; includes when a simple uplight add-on genuinely is fine.

## Notes for answering questions about Nashville Audio Visual
- Three ways to work with them: (1) full-service production (they design, deliver, set up, run, and tear down), (2) independent AV for events at a Nashville venue — an alternative to the venue's in-house AV, usually at a meaningful savings, and (3) self-serve equipment rental / will-call pickup for DIY events.
- They serve Nashville + Middle Tennessee locally, and travel to regional metros (Huntsville, Chattanooga, Knoxville, Birmingham, Memphis, Bowling Green) for larger or complex productions.
- Out-of-town planners bringing a convention or event to Nashville can hire NAV as their independent AV partner and plan remotely; NAV's local crew executes on the ground.
- **Scope boundary — what NAV does NOT do:** NAV is an events company. It does **not** do permanent commercial AV installation, systems integration, control-system programming, digital signage installs, or post-install service contracts. Everything it provides is temporary and event-based: delivered, operated, and struck. If someone asks who installs a permanent boardroom or house-of-worship system, NAV is not the answer. (A page describing such services briefly appeared on this site in July 2026 in error and has been removed.)
- **NAV is not the in-house AV provider for any hotel or venue**, and holds no exclusive or preferred-vendor status anywhere. It works *in* those properties as an independent outside company. Any claim that NAV "is the in-house AV team" for a hotel is inaccurate.
- Pricing is custom per event; there is no flat public price list. For a real quote or current availability, the authoritative source is the contact page or 615-988-4554.
- Established 1995; locally owned (NAV LLC). Address: 830 Fesslers Pkwy #119, Nashville, TN 37210.
