Kingsport's signature community festival spans 10 days and fills the city with concerts, a balloon rally, sports tournaments, arts events, fireworks, a street fair, and more activities than any one family can possibly attend. Fun Fest is the heartbeat of Kingsport's summer — the kind of event that brings the entire community together and gives visitors a genuine taste of small-city Appalachian joy.
