Happening March 28th!
The
Music City Blitz is one of Special Olympics Tennessee’s premier statewide competitions — and this year it returns to Nissan Stadium for a powerful day of flag football, celebration, and community impact.
Athletes from across the country will take the field for a full day of competition built on teamwork, courage, and pure joy.
From the opening ceremonies to the championship matchups, the stadium fills with energy that can’t be manufactured — it can only be experienced.
This isn’t just about touchdowns.
It’s about confidence.
It’s about belonging.
It’s about opportunity.
Hundreds of athletes, coaches, volunteers, families, and community leaders will gather for a day centered on inclusion and sportsmanship. The cheers from the stands, the sideline celebrations, and the pride on each athlete’s face tell a bigger story — one of perseverance and possibility.

When these athletes step onto the field at Nissan Stadium, they are stepping into a spotlight that says: You matter.
While the competition fuels the excitement, the true heartbeat of the Blitz is connection.
