Admission Fee / CST

The performance seating is pleasant, in a grove of trees with some covered seats. There is room to camp in tents and motor homes. The festival is a fund raiser for the South Pittsburg Mountain Volunteer Fire District, but admission is very reasonable.

This two-day festival features local and regional musicians. The local Fire Hall sponsors a concession stand with home-cooked and baked goods, including BBQ, pinto beans and fried pies. Bluegrass and old-time jam sessions, near and around the camp, last until late hours.

Directions: I-24 to S. Pittsburg Exit to U.S. 72. Turn right onto TN 156 and travel to top of mountain. Fire Station sign on left.

This project was funded under an agreement with the Tennessee Arts Commission and the National Endowment for the Arts.
