Convention Center Website 

The property of the State Fairgrounds dates back to before there was even a state of Tennessee or a city of Nashville. The Fairgrounds is the largest and last portion of a 640 acre tract of land belonging to Captain John Rains. The land was originally inhabited by Native Americans at that time. John Rains was given the land by the United States as a reward for service to the Revolutionary War.
