2-6PM | Saturday, May 11th
A new collaboration with the TN Distillers Guild bringing the top distilleries from across the state to the heart of Knoxville.
Distillers will serve a wide variety of whiskey and other unique, handcrafted spirits in this exclusive space. Learn more about the art of distilling, barrel aging, and the history and growth of each distillery. Taste something that you love? You can buy bottles on-site to take some Tennessee home with you. It’s a whiskey lover’s paradise in the middle of an epic day of music under Southern Skies!
The TN Whiskey Experience is a $50 Add-On to any General Admission or VIP Festival Ticket
Presented by:
What’s Included
The Whiskey Experience will offer festival attendees an immersive and educational opportunity to appreciate our state’s craft spirits and those who produce them. Enjoy a private tasting tent on the North end of the Festival Lawn with comfortable seating, shade, and a bar. Each participating distillery will do their own tastings and bottle sales from 2-6PM.
Wristbands
Whiskey Experience wristbands are $50 and can be purchased at the same time as your festival ticket. PLEASE NOTE: the Whiskey Experience takes place inside the Festival Gates - you must also purchase either a General Admission or VIP Festival Ticket to enter World’s Fair Park. This area is 21+ ONLY and wristbands are required for entry — if you plan on bringing anyone under 21 to the festival, please plan accordingly as they won't be allowed to enter the whiskey tent with you.
Bottle Sales
Each participating distillery will have the option to offer bottle sales. Bottles will be picked up as you exit the festival, and cannot be opened or consumed on-site.
A new collaboration with the Tennessee Distillers Guild
