r/Knoxville

So I am currently trying to talk to a few venues around here to see if I can get a witch house/wave show going and I was just curious if I threw a show in the next coming months on say a Friday or a Saturday evening would you all realistically go?

Edit: For any venue owners seeing this, I am local and already have a decent amount of WH, electroclash and wave artists both local and out of state interested in this. We are just waiting on a venue willing to host the event.

Can someone explain the hype to me please? Every time I drive by there’s a ton of cars in the drivethru. Not sure if I’m just not understanding the business model or if I’m just too old to get the appeal…..

Hey everyone,
I moved to Knoxville about 2 years ago and I’m trying to expand my local circle. I'm 34, married, and honestly just looking for some solid guy friends in the area to talk to and potentially hang out with.
It’s tough meeting people at this stage of life, so a few of us actually stay in touch through a basic group chat where we talk about sports, navigating marriage, daily life, and even some practical scripture/faith stuff here and there. We’re completely zero-judgment, down-to-earth, and I couldn't care less about what political side anyone is on. Just looking for good dudes with common interests who want a reliable sounding board and local guys to grab food or coffee with.
If you’re in a similar boat, married or single, and want to connect, shoot me a DM! We do most of our chatting in that group room, so I can easily loop you in there, or we can just chat directly on here first.

Appreciate it!

My fellow bean sippers,

Where have you gotten quality beans locally for a decent price? If I pay $30 for a 12 oz bag again I may have to take out a second mortgage.

Hi there! I have some friends coming to town from Florida next weekend & literally can’t think of anything “different” to take them to. I’d really like something fall-ish, something for afternoon evening time but doesn’t have to be, & different as in just not Dollywood (absolutely love but we’ve all been a million times) or Cades cove. Just any suggestions would be great! Thanks!

My boyfriend and I are staying in Knoxville for his birthday this October, and I'd like to book a half day float trip with a guide near Knoxville. Willing to drive up to 1.5 hours to the meeting point from downtown Knoxville.

I have fly fished onthe Tellico, but we stayed in Reliance, and I'm not sure if that would be feasible from Knoxville. I don't want to spend a ton of time in the car if there are other locations/guides closer.

Looking at Smoky Mountain Angler or Trophy Water Guide Service - South Holston float. I value scenery and distance from Knoxville, and I'm sure he would value a well-stocked river so we can actually catch something. I'd consider us both beginners even though we fish a little.

If someone has positive reviews on a company in this area (whether the guide or the river), I would go ahead and book that one since they're all similarly priced.

PS- I am aware of the licensing requirements & have that taken care of!
TIA!!

Looking for some fun free or cheap things to do for Halloween and fall this month. Have a couple of 3 year olds, so unfortunately they are no longer free for things like Boo at the Zoo or Oaks Farm 😭. Anyone know what's out there? I know there should be some good trunk or treat and fall festivals. Working on a list for us and some friends 🥰. Thanks!
