NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF – On Sunday, people can celebrate the end of the Paris Olympics at a watch party on Broadway!
The Assembly Food Hall is hosting the Summer Olympics, where the whole family will have fun at the closing ceremony.
The party starts at 2pm, which is also the time when the closing ceremony starts, so be sure to arrive early to secure a good spot in front of the big screen.
Admission is free and you can enjoy the ceremony while enjoying food from over 30 local food and drink vendors in the food hall. There will be crafts for the kids and fun games.
While cheering on Team USA, you can look out for Nashville native Gretchen Walsh, a Harpeth Hall graduate who will bring home four medals. Walsh won two silver medals for her participation in the 4x100m freestyle relay and 100m butterfly relays. She secured two gold medals in the mixed 4x100m medley relay final and the women’s 4x100m medley relay final. That last relay also set a world record with a time of 3 minutes, 49.63 seconds.
It was so exciting to see her and her sister Alex compete in the Olympics. All of the athletes who took part should be very proud of themselves.

“Here’s a great story that proves that everyone has something to give, regardless of age OR personal challenges. Our Austin Pollack introduces us to Ms. Sylvia Mooney. At 80 years old, she is not sitting still. Instead, she is using her skills to create compassion for others… one stitch at a time. Her crochet work goes to nonprofits to help our homeless neighbors. You might be surprised to know that she manages to do all of this while battling a serious health issue. Bravo Sylvia!”
