Quick, pleasant visit to the Knoxville Visitors Center. Nice gift shop and many pamphlets on local attractions and whatnot. Hosted by a lovely woman. There is a small stage where they have a live radio broadcast at noon most days! I think I'll check it out!
Lots of information, live music and swag. Musicians were playing when we were there and their song rang out like a bell. So beautiful.
This is a MUST noontime M-Th and Sat stop if you're visiting downtown Knoxville. At the corner of Gay St and Summit Hill, the Visitor's Center offers a place to sit and enjoy LIVE on WDVX BLUE PLATE SPECIAL 89.9 radio broadcasting, with Red Hickey hosting. Sometimes two bands, and this day one. Amy Ray and her most excellent band moved us and grooved us for an hour. Red will walk you thru how to be live on the radio. Enjoy!
This is a super great place to stop for information and souvenirs. Very reasonably priced. Friendly staff members!
They have live music, food, drinks, information. It's really awesome in here only downside is parking which is under construction. Good place to figure out what's going on in Knoxville
