From the rugged natural beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains to the glitz and glamor of Nashville, visitors to Tennessee can find a variety of different events and activities. Tennessee has a rich musical landscape, and music lovers will find a wealth of music-related events and attractions throughout the year. Music isn't Tennessee's only attraction, however, and visitors can also experience festivals, national parks, fine dining and more.
With the Tennessee River as a backdrop, this festival has become nine days of musical bliss. Multiple stages and nearly 100 headline and local performers fill the air with rock, country and alternative music selections.
Nashville, the capital of country music, hosts the best four days a fan of this genre could ask for. Top country stars not only perform, but often mingle with those in attendance at this June bash.
Every June, 80,000 people descend on Manchester. The experience includes outstanding music, and workshops in dance, crafts and, yes, even beer. Air-conditioned cinema and theater tents offer other entertainment.
