What’s Happening in Middle and East Tennessee

The weather is warming up, and it’s the perfect season to explore events in Middle and East Tennessee. Whether you’re looking to support local businesses, or you simply want to get out and enjoy some family fun, here are a few Tennessee events happening during the month of July:

Athens

Buddy Liner Fireworks Display at Athens Regional Park

You won’t want to miss the tremendous fireworks display scheduled for 9:30 p.m. at Athens Regional Park. While the park will be closed during the display for safety reasons, viewers can sit back and watch from neighboring campgrounds or the North Mouse Creek area. Visitors can also enjoy the soundtrack for the show on three radio stations, including:
•    WSJQ 101.7 FM
•    WLAR 1460 AM
•    95.1 FM
