Get ready to celebrate the most Southern of foods -- the biscuit.
A group of downtown supporters have the goal of making Knoxville the "biscuit capitol of the world" through the launch of the International Biscuit Festival taking place June 4-5 in downtown Knoxville.
The first annual International Biscuit Festival will be a celebration of what else? The biscuit.
The event begins at 5 p.m. on June 4 with First Friday Biscuit Art openings and performances.
On Saturday June 5, Market Square, Market Street, Clinch Avenue and Krutch Park will be bombarded with biscuit revelry in all forms all day long and into the evening! The event includes a Biscuit Bake Off, a Biscuit Scavenger Hunt, Biscuit Eating, Biscuit Songs and high quality entertainment! Join us downtown for this fabulous weekend presented by the Market Square District Association.
