Roane County Events & Festivals
|
2011 Holiday |
There is always something to do in Roane County - we are home to scenic Watts Bar Lake, one of the largest lakes in the south, and the spectacular Whitestone Country Inn & Spa, affordable family attractions, live Bluegrass music, a thriving education and arts community, unique history, and events and festivals all year long - there's no place like Roane!
Roane County also offers an authentic general store, antique shops and historic districts, scenic train rides, a pioneer-era fort, a 1950's-era drive-in, an expo center, and so much more! You won't run out of 'Things to do in Roane County'. We are constantly adding new events to the calendar so check back often. Have a fun community event that you would like us to list? Email the Visitors Bureau and we will be glad to consider listing it.
