Solo Piano in The Great Hall w/ Jamar A. Woods

Solo Piano in The Great Hall w/ Jamar A. Woods plays The Omni Grove Park Inn on Monday, October 12 at 7:00 PM. Get there a little early if you want a good spot.

The Great Hall sits right at 6,000 feet with doors that open to the mountain, so those massive fireplaces look great but the evening air still finds you if you're posted up near the perimeter. Throw a jacket in the car even if it feels warm when you pull up.

The Omni Grove Park Inn, perched on the hillside overlooking downtown Asheville, is an iconic mountain resort renowned for its historic architecture and sweeping Blue Ridge views. The Inn offers an impressive array of bars and restaurants, from the elegant Vue 1913 brasserie and steakhouse Sunset Terrace, with locally sourced steaks and seafood, to EDISON’s contemporary kitchen and craft ales bar. Guests and locals alike gather in the Great Hall Bar, with its 36-foot stone fireplaces, signature cocktails, live piano music, and an inviting ambiance for conversation or relaxation.

Locals respect Grove Park Inn for its tradition, hospitality, and the mix of upscale and casual eats. Sunset Terrace is the pick for classic chophouse fare and sky-high outdoor dining, while the Great Hall Bar’s live music and impressive sunsets are legendary for date nights or unwinding with friends. EDISON draws crowds with Asheville craft beers, seasonal cocktails, and the best mountain views for an all-day hangout.
