As you scroll through the pages, you'll swear you can almost smell the country ham and blackberry cobbler! Plan to be here for the 31st Annual Tennessee Fall Homecoming!

Our festival showcases some 400 musicians featuring authentic Southern Appalachian bluegrass, Gospel, folk and old-time country music continuously playing on 5 stages. Wherever you are on the grounds there will be music nearby. Old-time crafters will entertain and offer their treasures for sale. Demonstrator will show and explain how people lived and worked during pioneer times. As always there will be plenty of tasty Southern vittles to enjoy. Southern hospitality will be in abundance too.

Bring a chair and join the thousands of folks who make their annual pilgrimage to the Museum of Appalachia's Tennessee Fall Homecoming, one of the nation's largest and most authentic old-time mountain, craft, and music festivals.

Wander the Museum's 60-acre village and farm complex, participate in the daily hymn sing in the log church, or just treat yourself to some of the Southeast's finest music, ranging from gospel to bluegrass, performed from the Museum's four stages, along with buck dancing and clogging.

Each day of the event, dozens of local cooks serve country food, some of it prepared on woodburning stoves and in iron kettles.  And over 175 artisans—some whose work is rarely seen elsewhere—demonstrate old-time mountain activities, including quilting, basket weaving, splitting cedar rails, spinning and weaving, whittling, caning chairs, making lye soap, and constructing old-time instruments. Thousands of handcrafted items are available for purchase during the three-day event.

We are proud members
