Knoxville Loves Antique Cars

It’s springtime in Knoxville, and the 26th annual NSRA Street Rod Nationals is coming to town. Between two and three thousand street rods are expected to be on display at the Chilhowee Park & Expo Center. Thousands more show up to see these vintage cars from across the USA as spectators are free to check out each vehicle close up, with no ropes or sectioned off areas.

As with other NSRA events, there are more than just beautifully restored cars. A trade show, swap meet, arts and crafts fair and daily entertainment round out the weekend. A special ‘Streets of Rods’ area will also be at this show this weekend, be sure you don’t miss it. In addition to this great event, Knoxville is home to more than 20 museums and 7 historical houses so there is plenty more to see when you're in the neighborhood.
