Join us for the 2026 Cherokee Cultural Celebration at Red Clay State Historic Park! Immerse yourself in the rich history and culture of the Cherokee people through demonstrations, dancing, music, & more! The event will be on both August 8th & 9th.
Indulge in delicious frybread, participate in a traditional Cherokee dance with the Warriors of AniKituhwa, and listen to music by Cherokee artists!
The cost of attendance is $5 per vehicle. Cash will be taken at the gate on the days of the event. Handicap accessible parking is available via the main park gate (address is 1140 Red Clay Park Rd SW).
What should I bring to the CCC? Here’s a few suggestions!
- Cash – Admission ($5) at the gate is CASH ONLY, and many vendors accept only cash! Make sure you have plenty for admission, food, and crafts!
- A Lawn Chair – Seating for watching performers and the stickball game will be LIMITED! We highly recommend bringing your own lawn chair for the event.
- A Refillable Water Bottle – It’s going to be hot, y’all! Plan on bringing water. There will be drinks available for purchase from food vendors and a free water bottle filling station inside the Visitor Center. Stay hydrated!
- Sun Protection – Sunscreen is a must! Sunglasses are a good idea, too. Keep your eyes and skin safe!
- Comfortable Walking Shoes – Explore the park in the comfort of a good pair of walking shoes!
