Qualifying cities control downtown alcohol hours
The law lets qualifying Tennessee municipalities set when licensed businesses may sell or give away alcohol in designated downtown districts. This local authority overrides other laws on those hours. Only home-rule municipalities in counties with 133,000 to 133,100 people qualify, based on the 2020 or a later federal census. The municipality’s legislative body defines the district within its central or main business and commercial area. The law took effect upon becoming law.
