Located in the heart of downtown Nashville, Category 10 is a five-story, 69,000 sq. ft. entertainment complex reimagining the iconic Wildhorse Saloon. Designed to reflect the power and personality of Luke Combs’ music, the venue features multiple live music stages, a rooftop bar with river views, a bourbon lounge, immersive lighting, and a sports bar lined with recliners. From high-energy line dancing to curated Southern cuisine, every detail delivers an elevated honky-tonk experience with modern Southern style.

Harmonizing
Sound & Space

Inspired by Luke Combs’ hit “Hurricane”, “Category 10” takes his music and fan experience to the next level. Built on the former Wildhorse Saloon site, this venue opened in late 2024 and fully launched its rooftop bar “The Eye” in Feb 2025.

Design Technik provided acoustical design services and integrated our multi-octave acoustic technology with the interior design of both Hurricane Hall and The Eye. Despite construction already underway and a budget that accommodated roughly one-third of what was proposed, the value-engineered solution introduced a level of acoustic control previously missing in this iconic space.

This is not treatment; it’s tuning.

Like voicing an instrument, our process involves subtle, yet complex, decisions that shape how energy moves and resolves in the space. The result is a room that doesn’t need visible acoustic devices because its very form is functional—aesthetically, acoustically, and spatially.

Let's work together.
