Nestled along the scenic Blue Ridge Mountains of Northeast Tennessee and Southwest Virginia, lies Bristol, a city blessed with an abundance of natural beauty, performing arts, cultural opportunities, historical attractions, and sporting events.
Whether it's swimming or boating in our lakes; exploring the natural wonders of the area, such as Bristol Caverns, Appalachian Caverns or the Appalachian Trail; or playing a round of golf at one of our six courses, Bristol sets the stage for outdoor fun and adventure.
For history, heritage, and culture enthusiasts, experience one of our locations listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Paramount Center for the Arts or experience one of Bristol’s many Musical venues, and annual Bristol Rhythm and Roots Reunion festival dedicated to Bristol’s distinction as the “Official Birthplace of Country Music.”
Experience the thrill of speed! For a faster-paced attraction that hosts visitors from across the world, the Bristol Motor Speedway, NASCAR's fastest half-mile track, and Bristol Dragway will satisfy your need. Complete with Track Tour opportunities and a souvenir store, the Bristol Motor Speedway complex is truly racin’ the way it ought’a be!
In Bristol, you’ll find stories of epic proportions—many that are still being written today. Stories that started with humble beginnings and grew into cultural phenomena. Like a recording session that spawned a musical genre. Or an old-fashioned racetrack that grew into NASCAR’s most beloved venue. They’re just two of the reasons that Bristol is Layin’ Down Tracks—Livin’ Up to Legends.
