Thursday night at midnight, Gatlinburg hosts their 4th of July Parade under the lights. Symphony concert and fireworks are held on the lawn at World's Fair Park every 4th. Lenoir City also has fireworks that night on the lake.

We're having fireworks in Oak Ridge. Park at Roane State Community College and a shuttle bus will take you to the lake. (It was a surprise to me to find my City Data photo on this website):

Smile Tellico Village area

Lenoir City is having their celebration and fireworks display on Saturday, July 5.

Try this link: [url=http://www.rockinthedocks.com/]Rockin' the Docks: Fireworks Display, Lenoir City, Memorial Day Celebration Lenoir City, City Celebration[/url]

We are in Tellico Village and have a pontoon boat and plan to go and view the fireworks from the lake. First year here. Hope they are spectacular!

I had a hard time finding information on fireworks displays and certainly am disappointed that Tellico Village doesn't seem to offer one.

There's a 4th of July parade and free Diamond Rio concert in Rogersville. All day music and family fun with a huge fireworks display promised. Head out 11W, have a pretty drive through the country, stop at Ritters Farm for some tomatoes and other good veggies and things, and continue on to Rogersville, which is a very pretty little town.

The big fireworks display in Knoxville is Booms Day which is Labor Day weekend. Not sure how that got started, but it's a lot of fun.
