Knoxville 24 Hour Film Festival
Knoxville has been innovative enough to have started its own trend: the Knoxville 24 Hour Film Festival. On June 2, 30 teams will convene, faced with the task of creating a film in one day on a to be determined topic. These films will then be screened on June 30 for the public. Not only is this an exciting event for filmmakers, it’s sure to be a fun activity for family and friends! Tickets can be purchased online for 7PM at the Bijou Theater in downtown Knoxville.

Parkway Drive-In Theater
Although Knoxville may not have drive-ins, you don’t have to miss out on the summer opportunity! Drive a few miles out of town to Maryville for a date or fun night out with girlfriends! Tickets are only $7, and gates open at 7PM. Catch this summer’s blockbusters like The Lucky One and The Avengers on the weekends, and stop by the Maryville Flea Market while you’re at it!
