The Martin Luther King Day celebration in Nashville, TN hosted by the Interdenominational Ministers Fellowship (IMF), is the largest citywide event in honor of the life and legacy of Dr. King. The Week of Events concludes with the Youth Rally, Commemorative March down Historic Jefferson Street to Tennessee State University, and the Annual Convocation.

2025 will mark the 40th Year celebrating MLK Day in Nashville and it is the role that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. played in the Civil Rights Movement, overall and the influence he had on our city’s own activism that makes this long-standing event a national treasure.

Join the Kenny Smoov Morning Show broadcasting live from the Jefferson Street Baptist Church on Monday, January 20th from 7am-10am for the pre-convocation Youth Rally and the March down Historic Jefferson Street to TSU!

Then, join the March towards TSU for the annual Convocation with keynote speaker, renowned Author and Professor, Dr. Daniel Black.
