Events for July 19, 2026

Experience a flavorful start to summer at the first annual Black Bear & Berry Jam Festival in the Smokies. This three-day event blends mountain charm with seasonal favorites, featuring live music, family-friendly entertainment, and a variety of berry-inspired foods, from sweet treats to refreshing drinks. Guests can also visit Ober’s Wildlife Habitat for a chance to see black bears up close, along with engaging educational talks and interactive experiences led by wildlife staff. It’s a fun and unique way to celebrate summer in the Smokies.

Step into the spotlight and sing your heart out from 8:00 PM to 11:00 PM at The Pines Downtown in historic Sevierville, TN!

This isn’t just any ordinary karaoke night! You’ll be performing in the exact building where country music superstar Dolly Parton took the stage for her very first paid gig at just 10 years old. Initially opened in 1944 as a state-of-the-art theater hosting Western films and music icons like June Carter Cash and Chet Atkins, this beautifully renovated historic hall perfectly blends rich musical heritage with modern entertainment. You can even snap a photo with the famous exterior mural celebrating the legends who started it all right here!
