The beautiful Tennessee Theatre opened its doors in 1928 as a “movie palace.” Designed in the magnificent Spanish-Moorish style, the theatre was decorated with the most beautiful pieces available at the time: Czech crystal chandeliers, Italian terrazzo floor, and Asian details in the drapery and carpets. The theatre was meticulously restored in 2005 and today offers a bit for everyone: vintage movies, classical music concerts, Broadway shows, and rock concerts.

The theatre is home to the Knoxville Opera and Knoxville Symphony Orchestra and is used for many special events, big parties, and even weddings. The theatre is part of the National Register of Historic Places.
