Enjoy Music, Crafts, And Fun At The Tennessee Fall Homecoming



The Tennessee Fall Homecoming is known as one of the largest and most authentic music, folk, and craft festivals in the nation. Expect up to 400 nationally and regionally known musicians and singers to perform throughout this exciting festival.

There's much more than music to be enjoyed at the Homecoming in Tennessee - the Museum of Appalachia’s mission is to preserve and pass along the Appalachian heritage to younger generations, and with that said, there will be numerous demonstrations of old-time skills like molasses-making and rail-splitting, spinning and sheep herding, and much more during the festivities.

The Tennessee Fall Homecoming includes a large craft show with artisans selling pottery, baskets, wood carvings, musical instruments, honey, quilts, artwork, and countless other hand-made wares. Authors and musicians offer their books and CDs, and food vendors serve up traditional Appalachian “vittles”—from a full meal of cornbread and beans to special treats like fruit cobblers and homemade ice cream.

The Student Heritage Day at the Museum of Appalachia for students will be held in Early-Oct, with interactive music and activities geared toward youngsters. Homecoming visitors can also tour the extensive village-farm museum encompassing some three dozen authentic log structures, exhibit buildings filled with Appalachian artifacts, gardens surrounded by split rail fences, and a variety of farm animals in a picturesque setting. Unique, locally hand-crafted items are available in the gift shop, and a small café provides country meals, pinto beans and cornbread, and home-style desserts.

The Tennessee Fall Homecoming is a exciting event for those who love mountain, bluegrass, gospel, folk, and old country music, and, it is one event not to miss this fall!
