Riverbend Festival, aka Riverbend, named for the bend in the Tennessee River by

locals, began in June of 1982 as a five-night festival in Chattanooga, Tennessee. It
started as a way to come together downtown to celebrate the community we all share.
Over the years, Chattanooga’s original premier music festival has evolved into three
nights and ranks in the top 10% of all American festivals.

A wide variety of performers covering almost every music genre entertain the crowd on
our three stages set along the backdrop of the Tennessee River at Ross’s Landing,

also known as “The Scenic City’s Front Porch.”
