Tell us about your best Chattanooga Riverbend Festival experience along with your favorite picture or video of the festival!

The Riverbend Festival has become the biggest public event in the scenic city over the last twenty five plus years.

When you see the magnitude of Riverbend Chattanooga and it's impact on the city's economy today, it is hard to believe that it has grown from a mere one thousand people watching performers on a sand barge to well over half a million attendees enjoying top notch refreshments and world class entertainment over a period of nine days on six stages and over one hundred performances! Wow, I'm glad I got that all out!

Did I mention that the Riverbend Festival always ends with one of the largest and best fireworks displays I have ever seen? Well it does!
