About Outdoor Musical Play
Music City plays outside
Nashville is Music City, so musical play is a natural fit. Outdoor chimes, drums, xylophones and other instruments are made for weather and rough use and add something special to a play area.
We plan and install musical play on posts or panels, with surfacing and spacing that keep the area safe and the sound pleasant.

- Fun for all ages and abilities
- Fits parks, schools and backyards
- Planned for sound and space

The Process
How We Work With You
Talk and Measure
Call 615-357-7797 or send the form. We visit your yard, talk about your kids and your goals and measure the space and its slope.
Choose and Design
We help you compare options, plan the layout and safety zones and settle on equipment, surfacing and finishes.
Build With Care
We prepare the site, assemble the structure, anchor it and level it, and set up the surfacing properly.
Safety Walkthrough
We check every bolt, swing and slide with you, explain upkeep and make sure everything is ready to play.

Play Style Quiz
Six playful questions about your kids, your yard and your style, and we suggest the kind of play space that fits.
Before and After
See the Difference
Drag the handle to compare. Photos are illustrative.


Photos on this site are illustrative and show typical playgrounds and yards, not completed Music City Playgrounds projects. Every play area is planned and confirmed with a visit before work begins, and permit, HOA and local requirements depend on your property and location. Figures in our tools are planning estimates only.
Are outdoor instruments weatherproof?
Yes, they are made for outdoor use. We install them on sturdy supports.
Will it be too loud?
We place and space instruments for pleasant sound and consider neighbors.
Can it be added to an existing playground?
Often yes, with posts or panels placed near the play area.
