About TriCitiesTonight

TriCitiesTonight answers one question. What are we doing tonight? We list live music, trivia nights, food trucks, dinner and drink deals, festivals and Christmas lights across Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia.

That means Kingsport, Johnson City and Bristol (both sides of State Street), plus Elizabethton, Jonesborough, Greeneville, Erwin, Rogersville, Church Hill, Blountville, Gray, Bluff City, Piney Flats and Abingdon. If it's worth the drive up I-26 or I-81, it belongs here.

TriCitiesTonight is built and run in the Tri-Cities by people who ask the same question every Friday.

Where our event listings come from

Venues, food trucks and organizers add their own listings. The bar on State Street posts its Friday band, the truck on Broad Street posts where it's parked, and the folks running the market post the market. We also read public city and community calendars, and our desk adds what it finds there. Every listing names its source, and we check each one before it shows up here. See the public calendars we read.

Featured listings and ads

Featured listings are paid spots from local businesses. They are always labeled FEATURED, they stay in their real time slot, and they never jump to the top.

TriCitiesTonight also shows ads from Google, which keep the site free to use. Ads and featured spots never change what we list or how we check it. Our Privacy Policy explains how ads and cookies work here.

Report a wrong listing

If a time, a place or a price is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it. Bands get rescheduled and trucks sell out of brisket, and the listing should keep up.
