Visit Knoxville Sports Commission

From one-of-a-kind-attractions to 90+ restaurants, Knoxville has lots to offer visiting athletes and their families! A key component to Knoxville’s success is its unique venues, anchored by the Knoxville Convention Center (KCC), a premier facility that welcomes thousands of volleyball, basketball, gymnastics, dance, and cheer athletes each year. In addition to KCC, Knoxville has distinct venue options for all kinds of sports—like mountain biking, CrossFit competitions, Olympic diving, cross-country, and more—as well as water sports, thanks to the Tennessee River which runs through the heart of Knoxville. Many sporting venues are located within walking distance of the city’s vibrant downtown as well as the University of Tennessee campus. Knoxville is truly an impressive setting, and our Visit Knoxville Sports Commission team is here to help you make a game plan for your next sporting event.
