Knoxville, TN is renowned around the country as a classic sports town. From 100,000 people flocking to town to catch a football game on a fall Saturday or the best anglers in the world fishing on the water of the Tennessee River in the Bassmaster Classic, Knoxville does it all. Additionally, with over 70,000 sq. feet of sport court tile, Knoxville will floor you… literally. Our staff, along with our venue partners, can help accommodate your vision for an event with our floors ranging from basketball, volleyball, dance, and much more! For those with an affinity for the outdoors, Knoxville’s “Urban Wilderness” also offers 50 miles of interconnected trails along with a 500-acre nature center, which can serve as host to a variety of trail running or mountain biking events. The Visit Knoxville Sports Commission staff is excited to welcome you to our nature-loving-adventure-seeking-sports-kinda-town and make your next event a success!
